He accused Iran of wanting to eliminate Israel’s existence. “There is no doubt Iran is a regime that wants to eliminate Israel’s existence,” he said. Netanyahu also thanked Trump for causing a “serious blow” at Fordow nuclear facility in Iran.
US warns of Tehran against retaliation: Trump issued a fresh warning to Tehran, saying that there will be “either peace or tragedy” if it chooses to retaliate moments after US military strikes “completely and totally obliterated” Iran’s key nuclear facilities. “Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace. If they do not. Future attacks would be far greater and a lot easier,” he said.
Iran’s response to US strikes: Iran’s UN Ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani on Sunday told an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council that “Iran had repeatedly warned the warmongering US regime to refrain from stumbling into this quagmire” and the Iranian military will now decide the “timing, nature and scale of Iran’s proportionate response” to US strikes on Iran’s nuclear programme, as reported by AP. He also accused Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of succeeding in getting Trump to do the West’s “dirty work” and hijacking US foreign policy by “dragging the US into yet another costly and baseless war.”
