In a press conference with international media, the leader stated that, after nearly three weeks of uninterrupted military campaign, Tehran's nuclear and armament potential has been decisively neutralized. According to the Likud leader, the Persian regime "no longer has the capabilities to enrich uranium or produce ballistic missiles." The coordinated military operation by the Israel Defense Forces has operated under the premise of total destruction of critical Iranian infrastructure. Netanyahu detailed that pressure is being exerted from all possible fronts: "We are attacking them from the air, underground, and now also from the sea."
This deployment not only aims to eliminate existing arsenals, which according to official sources are being "massively degraded," but also targets the industries that enable the production of such programs. Under this strategy, Netanyahu has been categorical in stating that "Iran has no possibility of enriching uranium or manufacturing ballistic missiles." Beyond military achievements, the Israeli Prime Minister has focused on the internal political instability of the Islamic Republic. During his speech, he openly questioned the authority of the new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Jameneí, whose public absence has fueled rumors of a crisis. Netanyahu provocatively asked journalists, "Have you even seen the face of the new leader?"
According to intelligence information held by Israel, there are evident "cracks" in the Iranian government, opening the door to a historic shift. In this regard, the leader pointed out that a possible alternative leadership, embodied in figures like Reza Pahlavi, could be "a force for good," enabling the Iranian people to finally "take their destiny into their own hands." Netanyahu also took the opportunity to refute criticisms suggesting that Israel has influenced the strategy of the U.S. president. With irony, the Prime Minister asked, "Does anyone really think you can tell Trump what to do? Please!"
He assured that the American leader always acts under the premise of protecting the interests and future generations of his country. Despite the reported advances, the war continues to take a toll on human lives. So far, the number of fatalities in Iranian territory has risen to at least 1,230 people, while attacks launched from Iran have claimed the lives of 15 individuals in Israel and four in Palestinian territory. Despite this toll, Netanyahu warned that his government is "not counting the days" to end the offensive, making it clear that enemy arsenals "will be destroyed" entirely before considering a ceasefire.
