Netanyahu threatens after the US-Iran truce: “Israel can resume the fight at any time” / The Israeli Prime Minister contradicts the American press, which writes that Tel Aviv has agreed at the last minute
Israel is “prepared to resume the fight” against Iran at any moment, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened on Wednesday, reports AFP, according to News.ro.
The cease-fire agreement was concluded “in full cooperation” with Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu emphasized, quoted by Reuters.
Israel “was not informed until the last moment”, he assured,
The American business daily The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) previously wrote the opposite.
Israel was informed at the last minute about the ceasefire agreement between the United States and Iran, according to the WSJ.
Israel expressed its dissatisfaction with this agreement, according to the American newspaper.
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, for his part, previously stated that nothing was “over” after the armistice concluded by the United States with Iran.
He believes that the positions of Washington and Tehran are very far apart.
“Nothing is over yet,” Gideon Saar told Israel's Channel 11 on Wednesday.
“I don't see how it is possible for the positions of the United States and Iran to converge,” he said.
Iran says it shot down drone and threatens 'strong response'
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the country's ideological army, announced on Wednesday that it shot down a Hermes 900 drone in the city of Lar (in the south of the country), denouncing a violation of the agreed ceasefire and warned of a strong response to other violations, reports EFE, according to Agerpres.
The Revolutionary Guards warned that the entry of any “enemy” aircraft – referring to the United States and Israel – into the country's airspace, even without conducting offensive operations, would constitute a violation of the ceasefire and “will receive a firm and strong response”.
US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that his administration believes that the regime in Tehran has been “changed” and that the US will work “closely” with the Iranian leadership.
The country's ideological army said on Wednesday it had “no confidence” in the promises of the United States and said it would respond to any American or Israeli aggression during the truce.
