Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Sunday that recent Israeli attacks on Iran had significantly impacted Iran's defense capabilities. Netanyahu did not provide specific details on the targets of the strikes but emphasized that Israel had fulfilled its promise to respond firmly to Iran's ballistic missile attack earlier in the month.
Netanyahu stated, 'In the early hours of Saturday morning, we kept our promise and severely damaged Iran's defense capacity and its ability to produce missiles that work against us.' He likened the impact of the strikes to hitting the 'head of the octopus' and emphasized Israel's commitment to countering threats from Iran.
