by time news

A few days before the resumption of nuclear talks between Iran and the powers at the end of the month in Vienna, Defense Minister Bnei Gantz spoke this morning (Tuesday) at a security-political conference at Reichman University. In his opening remarks, he exposed the counterterrorism operations against Iran: “The Iranians are using bases in Shabhar and request in the south of the country for attack at sea by UAVs.” Ganz added:

In his opening remarks, the Minister of Defense said: “Israel is not a people to live alone, and the Iranian threat is not just about it. The Iranian method of becoming a regional bishop is to take over backward countries like Yemen which ranks last in the “fragile” index, Syria which ranks third before last, Iraq and Lebanon. The method is clear – first we take Damascus, than we take Berlin “.

Ganz then referred to the weapons transfer operations carried out by Iran around the world: “Iran also operates outside the region, transfers oil and weapons to Venezuela, operates the Quds Force in South America and tries to infiltrate its influence into Afghanistan. Iranian terrorism is promoted with the approval of leader Khamenei and “One of the main tools is UAVs, precision weapons, which can reach strategic targets within thousands of kilometers, and thus this capability is already endangering Sunni countries, international forces in the Middle East and also countries in Europe and Africa.”

“In February 2018, Iran launched a 141st UAV from the T4 airport in Syria, carrying TNT explosives. “The UAV was intercepted near Beit She’an and its destination was, to our understanding, terrorist elements in Judea,” he added.

In conclusion, he noted the importance of international cooperation against Iran: “In the face of the threat, the world has many tools to act, and it must exercise Plan B for the diplomatic option. We will continue to work in full cooperation with our American friend and other countries. In the economy, in foreign policy, in security and in moral values. “

“There is no doubt that a diplomatic solution is better, but alongside it there must also be a use of force, which is a continuation of diplomacy by other means. Sometimes using force and demonstrating it can prevent the need for more force. I thank our American friend for the recent sanctions. “, Concluded.
