Netanyahu: We Have Launched an Attack to Remove the Iranian Threat

SadaNews Translation - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated on Saturday that Israel, alongside the United States, has embarked on an operation to eliminate the existential threat posed by the Iranian regime, which he referred to as "terrorist."

In a recorded video message, Netanyahu expressed his gratitude to U.S. President Donald Trump, whom he described as "our great friend," as translated by SadaNews.

Netanyahu said: "For 47 years, the Ayatollah regime has been chanting 'Death to Israel', 'Death to America'... They have shed our blood, killed many Americans, and committed massacre against their own people."

He added: "This murderous terrorist regime must not arm itself with nuclear weapons that enable it to threaten all of humanity."

He continued: "Our joint efforts will create the conditions for the brave Iranian people to take their destiny into their own hands... It is time for all parts of the population in Iran to remove this tyranny and bring a free and peace-loving Iran."

He urged Israelis to listen to the instructions of the Home Front Command.

He said: "In the coming days of 'Lion's Roar' operation, we will all need patience and mental strength. Together we will stand, together we will fight, and together we will ensure the eternity of Israel."
