Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared on March 10, 2026, that Israel remains committed to its military campaign against Iran, stating the nation is "not done yet" in weakening Tehran's capabilities. The remarks came during a meeting with Israeli health officials, where Netanyahu urged Iranian citizens to challenge their leadership while emphasizing that regime change "depends on them."
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi responded firmly on Tuesday, ruling out renewed negotiations with the U.S. and vowing to sustain missile operations indefinitely. His comments to PBS follow U.S. President Donald Trump's recent assertion that the conflict would conclude "very soon," a claim contradicted by ongoing regional instability.
The crisis stems from a joint Israeli-U.S. strike on February 28, 2026, which ignited widespread hostilities across the Middle East. Analysts warn the conflict risks further destabilizing energy markets and global supply chains as diplomatic channels remain frozen.
