The mayor was inside the residence at the time, the police department said later Saturday
The NYPD’s Bomb Squad confirmed that the devices thrown in the direction of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home were both viable IEDs.
The incident is now under investigation by both the NYPD and the FBI. In total, two devices were thrown during the protests on Saturday afternoon on Manhattan’s swanky Upper East Side.
On Sunday, police spokesperson Jessica Tisch said that the “preliminary analysis of a device that was ignited and deployed at a protest yesterday has determined that it is not a hoax device or a smoke bomb.”
“It is, in fact, an improvised explosive device that could have caused serious injury or death,” Tisch added.
Who won again in that situation and why?
Northern Ireland? Nobody. And tensions remain today but people can love normal loves without oppression.
Or you mean Palestine? Terrorist attacks on either side didn’t help either. Eventually it lead to genocide.
Jurisdictionally it’s Britain, not Ireland. You’d need a passport generally to move between them. The Nazis won in that, so to speak. We’re all tired, and maybe people need to see these things to be a bit more brave. No one is coming to save us.
No, it’s Great Britain AND Northern Ireland. Both being part of the UK. If you’re going to be pedantic, be correct.
Free movement between Ireland and the UK predates the EU and continues to this day. One part of the Brexit discussions was continuing border free travel between north and south on the island of Ireland.
I agree, nobody is coming to save you and you have to do it for yourselves. Bombing protestors, however distasteful, will make it so there is nothing worth saving.
Don’t get me wrong. Terrorism can work. And today’s terrorist is tomorrow’s freedom fighter. I don’t thinknthe USA is at that level of oppression for mqny people to be sympathetic to a terrorist movement, which is a requirement for it to work.
