Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday shared what he described as the “secret” behind Israel’s actions and superiority in the war with Iran.
In a statement by his office, the PM insists the regime in Iran is weaker than ever. “What is the secret? Faith and power. We have both in abundance,” he said.
Netanyahu’s comment followed the rescue of an American crew member, who had gone missing after Iran shot down an F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jet over a remote mountainous region.
The prime minister disclosed that President Donald Trump thanked him for his assistance in the mission and views Israel as a steadfast, determined, and firm ally.
Netanyahu confirmed the destruction of the largest petrochemical plant in Iran, saying the goal of such strikes is to dismantle the Revolutionary Guards’ money machine.
Israel has targeted several infrastructure within Tehran and other locations, and has eliminated many senior officials. IRGC’s intelligence chief Majid Khademi was killed over the weekend.
Iran’s Bushehr nuclear power plant was struck again last week, eliciting condemnation from Russia, which urged the International Atomic Energy Agency to take action.
On Monday, the IAEA said one strike hit 75 metres from the nuclear site perimeter, based on its independent analysis of new satellite imagery and detailed knowledge of the facility.
