Defense Minister Israel Katz during a security assessment says that Israel is ready to resume the fighting against Iran, and is waiting for a “green light from the United States” to target the new supreme leader and Iranian energy sites.
“Israel is prepared to renew the war against Iran. The IDF is ready in defense and offense, and the targets are marked,” Katz says.
Katz says Israel is “awaiting a green light from the United States, first and foremost to complete the elimination of the Khamenei dynasty, the initiator of the extermination plan against Israel, and the successors of the successors of the leadership of the Iranian terror regime, and in addition to return Iran to the age of darkness and stone by blowing up central energy and electricity facilities and crushing national economic infrastructure.”
He adds that “this time the attack will be different and deadly and will add devastating blows in the most painful places, following the enormous blows the Iranian terror regime has already suffered so far, that will shake and collapse its foundations.”
