Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a stern warning to the Iranian leadership, stating that Tehran would receive a heavy blow in the event of an attack against his country. He stated that they were determined to achieve the set goal of overthrowing the Iranian regime and that the end of the regime was near.
Jnews.az reports that speaking at an event marking Rosh Hashanah, Netanyahu spoke about the growing tension in the region.
«If Iran makes a mistake and attacks us, it will suffer damage that cannot even be imagined. We are determined to fulfill the task of overthrowing the regime, and its end is near,» Netanyahu said.
The head of the Israeli government characterized his country as the main superpower of the region and called on opponents not to test Israel. He thanked the military and security forces for the fight against terrorism in Lebanon, the Gaza Strip, as well as Judea and Samaria.
Netanyahu stated that joint actions with the US made it possible to eliminate strategic threats. According to him, Israel eliminated the threat related to ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons and dealt a serious blow to Iran’s network of influence in the region.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz also made a tough statement regarding a possible Iranian attack. He stated that if Iran attacks Israel, they will remove all restrictions on retaliatory measures and target various strategic facilities of Iran, including its energy infrastructure.
At the same time, tensions between the US and Iran also continue. US forces struck three Iranian oil tankers following an Iranian missile attack on US Navy ships. The incident occurred at a time when the US-Iranian confrontation escalated once again.
Amid rising tensions in the Middle East, it is also reported that Iran intends to impose new restrictions regarding the Strait of Hormuz. This situation further increases the risks associated with the international transportation of energy resources.
