Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday vowed to personally pursue senior commanders of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards following a missile attack on the southern Israeli town of Arad.
He said “We’re going after the regime. We’re going after the IRGC, this criminal gang,” Netanyahu stated during his visit to the affected area.
He emphasized that Israel will target the leaders, installations, and economic assets of the IRGC, saying “We’re going after them personally”.
Recall, the second town struck by an Iranian missile on Saturday was Dimona, widely believed to house Israel’s undeclared nuclear arsenal.
On Sunday, Netanyahu visited the town, urging residents to heed instructions from the military’s Home Front Command and take shelter immediately whenever sirens warn of incoming missiles.
“The whole nation is a frontline, the entire home front is a frontline. And when we’re at the frontline, we carry out these orders,” Netanyahu said.
“So please do this — and this is an order.”
Iranian missile strikes on two southern Israeli towns wounded more than 100 people on Saturday, medics said, after Israeli air defence systems failed to intercept the projectiles.
