Israel's Defense Minister Warns of Retaliation if Iran Attacks
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz stated at a New Year's toast for Ministry of Defense employees that Iran might be pushed to "desperate measures" due to severe economic pressure and fears of internal revolt.
Katz warned that an Iranian attack on Israel would remove all limitations on Israel's response. "We will strike all infrastructures, including energy infrastructures, and return Iran to the Stone Age and darkness," he declared.
He indicated that Israel is observing signs suggesting Iran's regime is under significant strain, potentially leading to unpredictable actions. The minister's remarks highlight Israel's readiness to respond forcefully to any aggression from Iran.
