Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu in the plenum on Monday called for a confrontation with Iran, saying: "The information provided to the United States will be leaked to the media, and in this way our counterterrorism operations will be thwarted. About our actions. "

"This is an existential issue for Israel, in which there may be surprises and sometimes surprises are needed," Netanyahu said, attacking Prime Minister Bennett.

In response, a political source on Israel-US relations said: "Netanyahu pretends to care about national security, but in practice he continues to harm Israel-US relations, all in the name of narrow political considerations. This is an embarrassing and irresponsible statement.One can expect more from a person who considers himself or not to be light and innocent in the Israel-United States relationship. "

"We will work to remove any such threat."

Gantz warned of hundreds of Iranian UAVs "that are all over the Middle East," saying that "we will come to terms with anyone who seeks to harm us in time." To an area that has existed until now, and will strive to become an existential threat to Israel.
