Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed Wednesday evening that he plans to travel to New York and will 'speak the truth' in response to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. The statement, issued at 18:00 Jerusalem, follows the Prime Minister's earlier remarks this morning that he would confront Mamdani at the UN General Assembly in September. Netanyahu has been engaged in a public dispute with Mamdani since the mayor called for his arrest over the ICC warrant last month. The Prime Minister has accused Mamdani of fueling hatred against Jewish New Yorkers. Mamdani, in turn, has called on residents to protest Netanyahu's visit. Netanyahu's office has not specified the exact date of the trip, which is expected in September.
