Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel has achieved near-total control of the skies over Tehran
By Bernie,
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel has achieved near-total control of the skies over Tehran and is "peeling away more every day." Netanyahu stated that Israel is creating the conditions for the Iranian people to determine their own future, adding that Israel has "surprises in store to destabilize the regime."
Netanyahu issued a direct message to Iranian regime personnel: anyone who lays down their weapons will not be harmed. He addressed the Iranian public separately, saying their "moment of truth is approaching" and that liberation from tyranny will depend on them. "If you stand up, the day is not far when Israel and Iran will once again be close friends," he said.
On Lebanon, Netanyahu warned that if the government does not take responsibility for Hezbollah, there will be "disastrous consequences for Lebanon." He said Israel's success in Iran would lead to a dramatic expansion of the circle of peace, noting that many countries are now approaching Israel for cooperation "because we are strong, righteous, and fighting."
Netanyahu also hinted at further action ahead, saying "we will yet need resolve, together."
