Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu endorsed recent U.S. military action targeting Iranian nuclear facilities, calling it a demonstration of decisive leadership in a video statement released Sunday. The remarks came hours after American forces struck three sites linked to Iran's nuclear program.
"President Trump and I often say: 'Peace through strength.' First comes strength, then comes peace," Netanyahu stated, framing the operation as part of a long-standing security philosophy shared with the U.S. administration. The Israeli leader emphasized that "tonight, President Trump and the United States acted with a lot of strength."
The development follows escalating tensions in the Middle East, with regional analysts noting increased coordination between Washington and its allies on countering Iran's nuclear ambitions. While details of the strikes remain classified, the move signals continued Western commitment to preventing nuclear proliferation through preemptive measures.
Security experts suggest the operation could reshape diplomatic dynamics ahead of upcoming nuclear negotiations. However, critics warn of potential retaliatory measures from Tehran, underscoring the fragile balance of power in the region.
