Israel: Know why Israel is angry with Iran?
Israel: The situation in the Persian Gulf remains tense. The conflict between Israel and Hamas has been going on for nine months. Like Hamas, Hezbollah also keeps attacking Israel from Lebanon. It is said that the Hezbollah group is supported by Iran. Angered by these attacks, Israel called for an end to the attacks and also talked about taking action if this does not happen. Now an Israeli minister says that Iran’s message of “destructive war” has made that country capable of destruction.
Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz took a tough stand on Iran on Saturday, saying that the country’s destructive messages against Iran have made it capable of destroying the country. In a post on the social network X, he said: The regime that threatens to destroy must be destroyed. He also said that if Iran-backed Hezbollah does not stop shelling Israel from Lebanon and does not move away from its border, then Israel will respond with all its might.
Launching a devastating war: Iran
Parallel to the Gaza conflict, Hezbollah has been bombing Israel since October last year. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant said this week that they would prefer to use diplomatic means to resolve the issue.
Mr. Katz is a member of Israel’s security cabinet, but policy has largely been driven by Prime Minister Netanyahu and a handful of cabinet ministers, including Mr. Galant, who is in charge of negotiations on Gaza and Lebanon. I visited Washington this week.
