Socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has refused to say whether Hamas should disarm as part of the ceasefire deal in Gaza, stating he does not have opinions about the group's future. In a Fox News interview, Mamdani emphasized the need for justice and adherence to international law by all parties, but avoided directly addressing Hamas's actions. Mamdani has previously criticized Israel, accusing it of waging a 'genocidal war' in Gaza, and has faced scrutiny for not condemning controversial slogans. Meanwhile, reports indicate that Hamas is executing rivals in Gaza and has not fully complied with the ceasefire agreement, putting prospects for peace at risk.
