The Islamic Republic will face “unimaginable” consequences if it attacks Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned on Thursday.
“We are prepared for any scenario,” Netanyahu said at an Israel Defense Forces cadets graduation ceremony at the Bahad 1 officers training school in southern Israel. “And if the ayatollahs make the mistake of attacking us, they will experience a response they cannot even imagine.”
Addressing the newly commissioned officers in Hebrew, the prime minister said Israel is “operating side by side with our major ally, the United States,” adding that during his meeting in Washington on Feb. 11 with President Donald Trump, he presented “Israel’s position on the guiding principles for any talks with Iran.”
