New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani faced scrutiny after refusing to answer questions about his relationship with Jeremy Corbyn, the former British Labour Party leader expelled over anti-Semitism controversies. Corbyn recently participated in a phone banking event for Mamdani's campaign, raising concerns about the candidate's positions on Israel and anti-Semitism. Mamdani has previously declined to condemn controversial slogans and has taken radical stances regarding Israel, further fueling debate about his political alliances. The campaign event in Queens highlighted the candidate's far-left support, but Mamdani and his team did not respond to requests for comment on Corbyn's involvement.
