Israel is "very close" to creating conditions for regime change in Iran, according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's foreign policy adviser Ophir Falk. Falk stated that military and economic pressures are weakening Iran, but the decision rests with the Iranian people. He also discussed Gaza, asserting Hamas could disarm quickly and outlining requirements for the territory's future. Falk acknowledged Israel's struggles in information warfare and defended the country's hostage negotiation stance, stating no viable deal was offered that met Israel's war objectives.
