Netanyahu Defends US-Israel Campaign Against Iran, Vows to Prevent Nuclear Weapons
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended the joint US-Israeli military campaign against Iran, asserting it removed an immediate nuclear threat and saved Israel from potential annihilation. He emphasized that Iran will never be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons, with or without an agreement. Netanyahu also stated Israeli forces would remain in security zones in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria to protect national security. Critics, including former PM Naftali Bennett, challenged Netanyahu's leadership and approach to Iran and regional security.
