CNN’s Abby Phillip Falsely Claims NYC Terror Attack’s Target Was Zohran Mamdani

CNN anchor Abby Phillip incorrectly stated that the weekend’s alleged ISIS‑inspired terror attack in New York City was directed at Mayor Zohran Mamdani. She later apologized on X, correcting her claim and noting the attack was investigated as an act of terrorism targeting anti‑Islam protesters outside Mamdani’s office.
