Visiting the site of an Iranian missile impact in Beersheba, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu indicates that Israel intends to intensify the fight against Iran and Hezbollah, its proxy in Lebanon.

“We are striking the enemy, its leadership, its oppressive regime and different targets, including in Lebanon. We have determination, initiative and ingenuity that the enemy will discover even more significantly,” Netanyahu says, according to a statement from his office

“We are on the way to completing all our missions,” he says, as the US-Israeli operation in Iran nears the one-week mark.
