President Donald Trump said Monday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu \u201cwill not be arrested, in any way, shape, or form\u201d while visiting the United States, after New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he was exploring<\/a> whether the Israeli leader could be taken into custody by city police.<\/p>\n

Netanyahu is planning to visit New York City in September for the U.N. General Assembly. Mamdani said during his campaign for mayor that he would support arresting Netanyahu to enforce a warrant from the Hague-based International Criminal Court on charges of war crimes in Gaza.<\/p>\n

Mamdani said in a New York Times podcast episode that aired Saturday that his legal team was exploring whether there were grounds to take Netanyahu into custody. He didn\u2019t say conclusively that he believed there was a basis to do so.<\/p>
