In a dramatic escalation of tensions, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has launched a scathing attack on New York City Mayor Eric Adams, accusing him of "fomenting hate" after Adams threatened to arrest Netanyahu if he were to visit the city. The controversy centers around Netanyahu's planned appearance at a gala event in New York, which has sparked outrage among pro-Palestinian groups and critics of the Israeli government. Netanyahu's accusation against Adams comes as the Israeli leader faces increasing international scrutiny over his government's policies towards Palestinians. As the diplomatic row deepens, it remains to be seen how the situation will unfold and whether Netanyahu will ultimately be allowed to attend the event.
