Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed confidence on Thursday that Iran's Islamic republic could soon be toppled, stating it is weaker than ever and fighting for its survival. At an event with Israeli military leaders, Netanyahu declared his conviction that the regime's overthrow is imminent. This regime is currently teetering and must be removed once and for all, he emphasized, noting that it is close but not impossible.
Netanyahu, who has long described Iran's cleric-run state as an existential threat, initiated a joint attack with the United States in late February, though President Donald Trump halted the operation in April. Despite a resurgence of economic pressure and strikes this week, Iran has refrained from attacking U.S. allies in the Gulf, Jordan, and Iraq's autonomous Kurdistan region, suggesting they do so without targeting Israel.
