Mamdani Hosts Palestinian Activist Mahmoud Khalil for Ramadan Dinner at Gracie Mansion
Mayor Mamdani hosted Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil and family at Gracie Mansion to mark one year since Khalil's detention amid ongoing legal and immigration disputes.
- New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani hosted Mahmoud Khalil, Noor Abdalla, and their son at Gracie Mansion for a Ramadan iftar, prompting social media backlash.
- After about three months in an ICE detention facility, Mahmoud Khalil returned to New York in June, but judges later reversed and reconsidered release orders.
- Federal officials accused Khalil of activities aligned to Hamas and raised green-card fraud claims, while Khalil and his lawyers contend his protest was protected free speech and point to mass demonstrations in New York.
- On Tuesday, the Anti-Defamation League condemned Mamdani for hosting Mahmoud Khalil at Gracie Mansion, while Representative Randy Fine and Real Defender called for deportation and conservative activist Laura Loomer labeled the dinner 'outrageous'; other Jewish groups declined to weigh in.
- Mamdani is a prominent critic of Israel and a vocal supporter of Khalil who previously asked President Trump last month to dismiss the case, framing Khalil's detention as protest's cost.
