Vowing to adopt a scorched earth approach, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to retaliate following a vicious attack on Israeli soil.
His remarks come after Iran’s terrorist regime deliberately targeted an Israeli hospital and residential neighborhoods with missiles.
The missile barrage injured a staggering 240 innocent civilians in a barbaric escalation of hostilities.
Netanyahu immediately promised a forceful response to the unprovoked attack.
“This morning, Iran’s terrorist tyrants launched missiles at Soroka Hospital in Beersheba and at a civilian population in the center of the country. We will exact the full price from the tyrants in Tehran,” Netanyahu declared.
This latest act of aggression against America’s closest Middle East ally comes as President Donald Trump weighs potential U.S. involvement in dismantling Iran’s nuclear program.
The Iranian missile strike hit Soroka Medical Center, a major hospital in southern Israel, causing extensive damage.
Fortunately, the incident resulted in minimal casualties due to a preemptive evacuation.
Other missiles struck residential areas near Tel Aviv, targeting innocent civilians in their homes and showing the true face of the Iranian regime’s brutality.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz did not mince words when he labeled the hospital strike a war crime, directly holding Iran’s Supreme Leader accountable.
“The cowardly Iranian dictator sits in the depths of a fortified bunker and fires aimed shots at hospitals and residential buildings,” Katz stated.
The assault represents the latest in a series of provocations by Iran, which has launched over 400 rockets and hundreds of drones at Israel since the conflict began.
President Trump has maintained strategic ambiguity regarding whether the United States would join Israel in targeting Iran’s nuclear sites.
“You don’t seriously think I’m going to answer that question. I may do it. I may not do it. I mean, nobody knows what I’m going to do,” he said.
This approach keeps Iran guessing while allowing America’s military planners to prepare for all contingencies.
Israel has already struck back at Iran’s nuclear program, targeting the Arak heavy water reactor that could produce plutonium for nuclear weapons.
Despite Iran’s continued claims that its nuclear program is purely peaceful, the regime has been enriching uranium to 60% purity, dangerously close to weapons-grade levels of 90%.
The attack on Soroka Medical Center proves that Iran has no regard for international law or basic human decency.
Iran’s Supreme Leader has rejected U.S. calls to end its nuclear program and even threatened “irreversible consequences” if America intervenes militarily.
Meanwhile, the International Atomic Energy Agency has urged Israel not to strike Iranian nuclear sites.
While diplomatic efforts continue, with Iran’s Foreign Minister planning to meet with European counterparts, history has shown that the Iranian regime only responds to strength, not appeasement.
