 ‘Israel stands with you’: Netanyahu in video address to Iranians

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a new video addressing Iranians in which he says the Iranian establishment “plunges our region deeper into darkness and deeper into war”.

“Every day, their puppets are eliminated. Ask [Hamas commander] Mohammed Deif, ask [Hezbollah’s Hassan] Nasrallah. There is nowhere in the Middle East Israel cannot reach. There is nowhere we will not go to protect our people and protect our country,” Netanyahu said in the video he posted on X.

“With every passing moment, the regime is bringing you – the noble Persian people – closer to the abyss. The vast majority of Iranians know their regime doesn’t care a whit about them,” he said.

Netanyahu added that when Iran is “finally free”, Israel and Iran will be at “peace” with tourism and technological advancements benefiting both countries.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has called on Muslims around the world to unite and “stand by the people of Lebanon and the proud Hezbollah”, following reports of the killing of the Lebanese group’s leader Hassan Nasrallah in an Israeli air strike on Friday.

In a statement on Saturday, Israeli Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei condemned Israel’s “criminal” attacks on Lebanon and described its policy as “short-sighted”.
