Netanyahu to travel to New York for UN General Assembly, to give address on September 24
The Prime Minister's Office said in a statement that Netanyahu will be traveling to New York from September 23 to 25 to attend the UN's leaders' summit.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will journey to the United States on September 23 to partake in the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, according to the Prime Minister's Office. This visit will span from September 23 to 25, occurring after Yom Kippur and preceding the Sukkot holiday. It is anticipated that Netanyahu will deliver a speech to the General Assembly on Thursday, September 24.
The disclosure follows New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani's admission on July 22 that he lacked the authority to enforce the International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant against Netanyahu. Since launching his 2025 bid for Mayor of New York City, Mamdani has vowed to order the New York Police Department to apprehend Netanyahu upon his arrival in the city.
In a September 2025 interview with the New York Times, Mamdani labeled Netanyahu as a "war criminal" responsible for committing genocide in Gaza, asserting that he would have the prime minister arrested as soon as he touched down in New York.
