A far-right Israeli minister has urged New York’s Jewish residents to flee and settle in Israel following Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the city’s mayoral election, branding the 34-year-old Democratic “socialist” a “Hamas supporter.” “The city that once stood as a symbol of global freedom has handed over its keys to a Hamas supporter,” Israel’s right-wing Minister of Diaspora and Combating Antisemitism Amichai Chikli wrote on X. “New York will never be the same again, especially not for its Jewish community,” he added.
