Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to crush the Iranian regime during a security assessment at the Kirya in Tel Aviv on Friday.
“In full coordination between myself and President Trump, between the IDF and the United States Army, we will continue to crush Iran. This regime is weaker than ever - Israel is stronger than ever,” Netanyahu stated.
He detailed that the Air Force has destroyed around 70% of the regime’s steel production capacity, describing the move as “a tremendous achievement that deprives the Revolutionary Guards of both financial resources and the ability to produce many weapons.”
“Together with our American friends, we continue to crush the terror regime in Iran. We are eliminating commanders, bombing bridges, striking infrastructure,” Netanyahu said of Operation Roaring Lion and Operation Epic Fury.
IDF to continue striking Hezbollah
He added that Israel is also continuing its operations against Hezbollah in Lebanon, stating that the IDF will “continue to strike Hezbollah decisively.”
“We are continuing to expand the security zone and establish it in order to protect the northern communities.”
Netanyahu also commended the citizens of Israel for maintaining their resilience and for following Home Front Command guidelines even during the Passover holiday.
“With God’s help, we will continue to fight and achieve all our objectives. Happy holidays,” Netanyahu concluded.
