שר הביטחון: צה"ל חייב להיות מוכן לתקיפה עצמאית באיראן

הערכה

Defense Minister Israel Katz publicly stated that the IDF must be prepared for an independent strike on Iran, marking a significant escalation in official rhetoric. The assessment came during a multi-front situational review held a thousand days after the October 7 attack. Katz claimed Israel had eliminated Iran's nuclear program and killed Khamenei and most of the regime's leadership, though these assertions lack independent verification. The directive signals a potential shift toward unilateral military action, raising questions about coordination with allies and the actual status of Iran's nuclear capabilities.
