Time.news – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin <a href="https://time.news/elon-musk-visits-israel-after-controversy-over-anti-semitism/" title="Elon Musk visits Israel after controversy over anti-Semitism”>Netanyahu said that the Israeli army managed to destroy “a large part” of the arsenal of the Islamist movement Hezbollah in Lebanon and changed the course of the conflict. “We have destroyed much of the arsenal of missiles and rockets that Hezbollah has accumulated over the years” Netanyahu said in a televised statement. “We have changed the course of the war,” he added.
Netanyahu criticized French President Emmanuel Macron, and the leaders of countries who have called for an end to arms supplies to Israel as part of the war against Palestinian Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. “As Israel fights the forces of barbarism led by Iran, all civilized countries should stand firmly with Israel. Yet, President Macron and other Western leaders are now calling for arms embargoes against Israel. They should be ashamed,” reads a communicated.
The Israeli prime minister then said that “Iran launched the largest ballistic missile attack in history against Israel. Israel has the duty and the right to defend itself and respond to those attacks, and we will do so.” “We have changed the balance of the war and have not yet shown our full strength. This includes the Iranian threat,” he added.
