In Memorial Day message, Netanyahu says Israel has ‘removed’ an existential threat, but fight isn’t over

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that while the war against Iran and its terror proxies isn’t over, Israel removed the existential threat they posed, in a message to bereaved families on Memorial Day.

“We remember every fallen soldier whose life was cut short, but on Memorial Day we meet them with a broader perspective, a national perspective,” he says.

“The collective memory touches the foundations of our existence, as a country that constantly struggles for its security,” he adds.

Touching on the ongoing conflict with Iran and its terror proxies, Netanyahu says the campaign isn’t over, “but we have already removed an existential threat from us. We have returned all our hostages, hit our enemies hard, and made Israel a stronger state than ever before.”
