> Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party has placed a campaign billboard in central Tel Aviv depicting New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani alongside Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Iran’s Mojtaba Khamenei and Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem. The move follows an intensifying feud after Mamdani called Netanyahu a “war criminal.”
