Netanyahu Says Iran to Face Thousands of Strikes in Coming Days
(MENAFN) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared Saturday that combat operations targeting Iran "will continue as long as necessary to ensure that Iran no longer poses a threat," signaling no imminent halt to what has rapidly escalated into one of the most consequential military campaigns in the region's modern history.
Speaking in a live televised address, Netanyahu announced that Israel "will strike thousands of targets in the coming days," adding that the Israeli military remains fully prepared for any potential retaliation from "Iranian proxies" operating across the region.
The Israeli premier projected confidence over the conflict's direction, asserting that the initiative is now firmly held by Tel Aviv and Washington, describing both nations as acting in full coordination — a framing that places the United States at the center of an expanding offensive posture against Tehran.
Among the statement's most explosive claims, Netanyahu cited "increasing signs" that Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is "gone," alleging that Israeli strikes had destroyed Khamenei's compound and killed commanders of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps.
Israeli media outlets amplified those claims Saturday evening, reporting that Khamenei had been killed in joint U.S.-Israeli attacks and that his body had been recovered. Iranian officials, however, pushed back forcefully, insisting the supreme leader and the president are "safe and sound" and dismissing the reports by stating that "the enemy is resorting to mental warfare."
The sharply conflicting accounts have plunged the situation into deep uncertainty, with neither side's claims independently verified as of Saturday night.
