Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed recent developments in the Middle East in a public video statement on Wednesday. He highlighted Israel's recent actions against Iranian proxies, including targeting Iran-backed Houthis and a strike against Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in southern Beirut, Lebanon.
Notably, Netanyahu did not mention the strike on Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh, which has raised speculation and tensions in the region. While Israel has not claimed responsibility for the attack on Haniyeh, Iran has vowed to avenge his death, citing it as a duty after he was killed on Iranian soil.
