Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that Iran's Islamic Republic is weaker than ever and close to collapse, asserting that toppling the regime is the central task ahead and is within reach. These comments were made during a visit to Israeli troops in southern Syria.
The Israeli Prime Minister's strong assertions about Iran's imminent collapse signal a potential escalation in regional tensions and underscore Israel's long-standing geopolitical stance against the Iranian regime.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed confidence on Wednesday that Iran's Islamic Republic is on the verge of collapse, stating the regime is 'weaker than ever' and that toppling it is 'within reach'.
Speaking during a visit to Israeli troops stationed in southern Syria on the Syrian side of Mount Hermon, Netanyahu declared that the 'main task is to bring down the terror regime in Iran' and that 'the entire axis will ultimately collapse'. He reiterated Israel's commitment to not allowing any 'terrorist army' to establish itself on its border.
Netanyahu's remarks come amidst intensified fighting in the six-month Middle East war, with the United States having resumed attacks on Iran, prompting retaliatory actions against U.S. allies. The Israeli leader noted that Iran attacks everyone but not Israel, attributing this to their knowledge of Israel's power and determination.
These statements precede upcoming general elections in Israel, where some polls indicate Netanyahu may be trailing, and opposition leaders have criticized his handling of the Iran issue.
