US President Donald Trump has warned Indian-origin Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani to "behave" if he wins the New York mayoral race, after Mamdani vowed to arrest Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu if he visits the city. Citing the ICC warrant against Netanyahu over alleged war crimes in Gaza, Mamdani's pledge sparked backlash. Trump labeled Mamdani a "communist" and accused him of "anti-Jewish" rhetoric. "He better behave… or he’s going to have big problems," Trump said before a private dinner with Netanyahu. The Israeli PM dismissed the threat, calling it “silly” and said he planned to visit New York with Trump. (PC: NDTV)
