New York Mayor Drops Netanyahu Arrest Pledge

New York Mayor Eric Adams has dropped his pledge to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his expected visit to the city for the United Nations General Assembly in September. The decision comes after US President Donald Trump's reality check on the issue. According to reports, Adams had called Netanyahu a 'war criminal' and urged the Trump administration to arrest him. However, the US authorities have not taken any action on the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant against Netanyahu.
