Israel has changed the strategic reality in the Middle East with its intense strikes on Iranian proxy groups, including the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said.
“We crushed Hamas in Gaza. We eliminated most of its chain of command,” Netanyahu said in a Sunday night statement.
“We forcefully struck Hezbollah, we eliminated Nasrallah, and we are systematically eliminating the top of his command, including another [assassination] today in Lebanon,” Netanyahu stated.
“At the same time, a little while ago, the IDF hit our enemies in Yemen again,” he said.
“Everyone sees the [long] range [of Israeli’s military capacity], everyone sees the fire over the targets, and everyone sees the price paid by those who attack us,” Netanyahu stated.
“When I ordered the assassination of Hassan Nasrallah, we all knew that an entire nation was behind this decision.
“I said yesterday that we are in a period of days of greatness, but also challenging days. These are large days - because in them we are changing the strategic reality in the Middle East,” Netanyahu stated.
He stressed, however, that there are still difficult days ahead as Israel stands firm on the goals it has set, “the elimination of Hamas, the return of all our hostages, and the safe return of the residents of the north to their homes.”
