Netanyahu warns Israel will defend itself ‘by any means necessary’

Amid reports of a wave of Israeli strikes against Iranian targets and Iran-backed militias in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu releases a 17-second Hebrew-language YouTube video, apparently meant for Israelis, in which he vows that Israel will continue to “defend its security by any means necessary.”

“Iran is acting in a broad front to produce murderous terror attacks against Israel,” he says.

“Israel will continue to defend its security by any means necessary.”

He concludes: “I call on the international community to act immediately to ensure Iran stops these attacks.”
