Netanyahu skips New York landings over Mammadani
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to change the landing route of his official aircraft, "Cheel Siyon," so that it will arrive in New Jersey instead of John F. Kennedy Airport in New York. This decision was made due to difficulties in coordinating with American authorities and concerns over the stance of New York City Mayor Zahran Mmdani. The plane is expected to land at a military base in New Jersey or at Newark Liberty Airport to avoid the possibility of authorities demanding its immediate removal upon arrival, given Netanyahu's brief visit to participate in the United Nations General Assembly. These changes come amid Israeli concerns over protests against Netanyahu in New York and tensions between him and Mmdani, who has previously criticized him and called for action regarding the arrest warrant issued against him by the International Criminal Court.
