Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ignored, on Wednesday evening, the operation that took place in Tehran against the head of the political bureau of the Hamas movement, which led to his martyrdom.

Netanyahu appeared in a video press release, apparently recorded by his office, in which he claimed that Israel was waging an existential struggle against what he called the Iranian axis of evil.

He said: In the past few days, we have launched three strikes against Iran's agents: Hamas by assassinating Mohammed Deif, the Houthis by carrying out one of the most far-reaching attacks carried out by the Air Force, and last night the Chief of Staff of Hezbollah.

He said: Yesterday we killed Nasrallah's deputy who was responsible for killing children in Majdal Shams and the ongoing attacks on the northern front.

He added: Whoever harms us or touches Israel, his blood is forfeit.

He said: Difficult days are coming, we are ready for any scenario.

He added: The war will take time and require patience.
