Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has a sent a very strong message to Iran over its multiple missile attacks .
Netanyahu said, “Iran made a big mistake tonight – and it will pay for it.”
Speaking at the Start of the Security Cabinet Meeting, PM Benjamin Netanyahu said, “Citizens of Israel, at the start of my remarks, I send condolences to the families of those who were murdered in the abhorrent terrorist attack in Jaffa and my best wishes for a quick recovery to the wounded.”
He referred the attack as ‘terrorist attack’ and stated that it came from Iran’s capital Tehran. “As in the missile attack, there was also a murderous guiding hand behind this terrorist attack – it came from Tehran,” said Netanyahu.
He informed that this evening, Iran again attacked Israel with hundreds of missiles. This attack failed. It was thwarted thanks to Israel’s air defense array, which is the most advanced in the world.”
Netanyahu commended the IDF for its impressive achievement. He further thanked the United States for its support in their defensive effort. “It was also thwarted thanks to your alertness and responsibility, citizens of Israel. I also thank the US for its support in our defensive effort,” he added.
Calling the attack as Iran’s big mistake, he said, “This evening, Iran made a big mistake – and it will pay for it. The regime in Tehran does not understand our determination to defend ourselves and to exact a price from our enemies.”
He reinstated Israel’s rule and stressed that it will attack whoever attacks it. “Sinwar and Deif did not understand this; neither did Nasrallah or Mohsen. Apparently, there are those in Tehran who do not understand this either. They will. We will keep to the rule we have determined: Whoever attacks us – we attack them,” said the Israel PM.
He mentioned that they are fighting against the evil, be it anywhere. “This is true wherever we fight the axis of evil. It is true in Judea and Samaria. It is true in Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen and Syria – and it is also true in Iran. We are fighting the axis of evil everywhere, including in southern Lebanon and Gaza, where our heroic soldiers are active,” said Netanyahu.
He asserted that the world must unite to fight against the ayatollahs’ dark regime, which he defined as the source of terror and evil in their region.
“They must stand alongside Israel. The choice has never been more clear, between tyranny and freedom, between the blessing and the curse. On the eve of Rosh Hashanah, I say to you, citizens of Israel: Israel has the momentum and the axis of evil is in retreat,” added Netanyahu.
He declared that Israel will do everything to protect its citizen. “We will do whatever needs to be done to continue this trend. To achieve all of our war objectives, especially the return of all of our hostages, and ensure our existence and our future. A good and safe year to you all.”
PM Netanyahu affirmed that “Together we will stand, fight and win.”
