Speaking to the IDF’s top brass ahead of the strikes on Iran, Defense Minister Israel Katz says the military developed “exceptional capabilities” for the operation.
“Upon taking office, I defined the thwarting of Iran’s nuclear ambitions as a top priority,” Katz says.
“Iran is more determined than ever to realize its vision of destroying Israel. We are at a critical juncture; if we miss it, we will have no way to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons that threaten our existence,” he says.
“We have dealt with Iran’s proxies over the past year and a half, but now we are dealing with the head of the snake itself,” Katz continues.
“Over the years, and especially in recent months, the IDF has built exceptional capabilities in intelligence and operations, both defensive and offensive, which enable us to effectively confront the major challenges we face,” he adds.
