Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tells UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres that Iran is building factories to produce precision-guided missiles in Syria and Lebanon.
Ahead of the meeting between the two leaders in Jerusalem, Netanyahu says Iran is trying to turn Syria and Lebanon into a military base to launch attacks on Israel.
“Iran is busy turning Syria into a base of military entrenchment, and it wants to use Syria and Lebanon as warfronts against its declared goal to eradicate Israel,” Netanyahu said. “This is something Israel cannot accept. This is something the UN should not accept.”
