Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's Prime Minister, has stated he does not fear arrest for alleged war crimes and has special forces prepared. A call from New York City's mayor, Zohran Mamdani, for the US government to enforce an International Criminal Court arrest warrant was issued in November 2024. Netanyahu denies the accusations of war crimes and crimes against humanity, calling them "antisemitic".
