In visit to IDF’s Northern Command, Netanyahu warns Iran of Israel’s ‘red lines’

During a visit to the military’s Northern Command in Safed, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warns Iran of Israel’s “red lines.”

“The main enemy we are facing is the terror regime in Iran and its satellites in Syria and Lebanon,” Netanyahu says in remarks provided by his office.

“We are determined to fight Iran’s attempts to develop a nuclear arsenal. We are determined to fight any attempt by Iran to entrench itself on our northern military frontier in Syria. We are determined to fight all attempts by Hezbollah to show aggression against us from Lebanon,” Netanyahu says.

“And those who need to be given a reminder of our red lines in this matter will receive it,” he adds.

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant who joined Netanyahu in the visit, also vows to prevent Iran’s military entrenchment in Syria and to “cut off the channels used to transfer Iranian weapons to Lebanon and Hezbollah.”

“The quiet in the north is an important goal. Therefore, along with maintaining calm, we will act powerfully against any attempt to harm Israeli citizens and IDF soldiers,” he adds.
