After hinting at an attack on Rosh Hashanah: Netanyahu's unusual message from the Western Wall

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a statement from the Western Wall ahead of Rosh Hashanah, in which he addressed Iran's attempts to revive its nuclear program and pledged that it will not have nuclear weapons as long as he is in office. Netanyahu concluded his remarks with the phrase "more to come," joining hints he has recently dropped about the possibility of additional military action. This comes against the backdrop of a previous comment in an interview where he was asked where he would be on Rosh Hashanah and replied "you'll hear about it."

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a statement Thursday evening from the Western Wall ahead of Rosh Hashanah, addressing Iran's attempts to revive its nuclear program. Netanyahu said: "President Trump announced this evening that Iran is trying to rearm itself with nuclear weapons, and that is correct. After we destroyed its immediate capability to produce nuclear bombs in both 'With All Lions' and 'Roar of the Lion,' they are trying again." He pledged: "As long as I am prime minister, Iran will not have nuclear weapons." The remarks come amid additional hints Netanyahu has recently dropped. In an interview with Nave Dromi, he was asked where he would be on Rosh Hashanah and replied: "It's a secret, I can't tell you because... you'll hear about it." Now, days after that hint, Netanyahu chose to address the Iranian threat again and concluded with the phrase "more to come." Netanyahu said Israel is striking the Iranian axis not only in Gaza but also in Lebanon: "We destroyed the Beaufort Ridge and are now dealing with the Ali Tahar Ridge." His remarks came hours after US President Trump escalated his tone toward Tehran, revealed activity at the underground site "Pickaxe Mountain" near Natanz, and warned that Washington may need to strike. This comes amid reports that Iran has resumed limited production of ballistic missiles.
