On Oct. 7 anniversary, Mamdani accuses Netanyahu, Israeli gov't of launching 'genocidal war'
""In the aftermath of that day, Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government launched a genocidal war," he said while adding that 67,000 people have been killed - a figure used by the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza."
""Every day in Gaza has become a place where grief itself has run out of language," he also said. "I mourn these lives and pray for the families that have been shattered. Our government has been complicit through it all.""
""for the safe return of every hostage still held and for every family whose lives were torn apart by these atrocities,""
""the occupation and apartheid.""
Zohran Mamdani used the second anniversary of Hamas' Oct. 7 attack to condemn Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government for launching a "genocidal war" in Gaza and accused the United States of complicity. He labeled Hamas' attack a horrific war crime that killed about 1,200 Israelis, expressed prayers for remaining hostages and noted roughly 48 remain with fewer than half believed alive. He cited a Gaza health ministry figure of 67,000 killed, mourned overwhelming grief, urged an end to occupation and apartheid, and called for a peace deal.
