'Will Hit All Of Iran's Nuclear Facilities': Netanyahu's 'With Or Without Trump' Warning
Last Updated: Amid intensifying Iran-Israel conflict, Netanyahu said Israel can eliminate all of Iran's nuclear facilities without US approval, asserting Israel won't seek a 'green light'. As the Iran-Israel conflict rages on, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said his country is capable of removing all of Iran's nuclear facilities, whether or not US President Donald Trump decides to join in. Netanyahu also said Israel will not wait for a green signal from the United States before it hits Iranian sites, including the underground nuclear site in Fordo. 'We will achieve all our objectives and hit all of their nuclear facilities. We have the capability to do that," Netanyahu said in a Hebrew-language interview with the Kan public broadcaster. 'The matter of changing the regime or the fall of this regime is, first and foremost, a matter for the Iranian people. There is no substitute for this," the Israeli Prime Minister said. Whether Donald Trump 'wants to join or not, that's entirely his decision," he said. 'He'll do what is good for the United States, and I'll do what is good for the State of Israel," Netanyahu said, adding that Israel is not asking for permission, or a 'green light" from any foreign power. Fordo is buried under a mountain and widely considered to be out of reach of all but America's 'bunker-buster" bombs. First Published: June 20, 2025, 09:15 IST

'Not asking for US green light': Netanyahu says Israel will hit all nuclear sites in Iran; quiet on eliminating Khamenei
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made it clear that Israel will not wait for a US green light to continue its military campaign against Iran and is fully committed to hitting all Iranian nuclear sites — including the heavily fortified Fordo facility. "We will achieve all our objectives and hit all of their nuclear facilities. We have the capability to do that," Netanyahu declared in a rare Hebrew-language interview with the Kan public broadcaster, underscoring Israel's determination to act decisively and independently. The comment came hours after US President Donald Trump said he will decide whether to join Israel's strikes on Iran within the next two weeks as there is still a "substantial" chance of talks to end the conflict. "Based on the fact that there's a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks," Trump had said in a statement. Netanyahu emphasised that Israel is proceeding with its campaign regardless of whether the United States decides to join the offensive.

The prime minister stressed that Israel is not asking for permission or a 'green light' from any foreign power. 'Either way, we're going to do this, because we have no choice. We will not allow 3,500 years of Jewish history to come to an end because of this deranged ayatollah,' Netanyahu declared, referencing Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Netanyahu outlined Israel's comprehensive strategy to neutralise Iran's nuclear threat by targeting every nuclear facility, including the underground Fordo site, which is widely considered one of the most secure and difficult to strike. 'We have the capability to do that,' he said confidently, signaling Israel's readiness to deploy advanced military assets to destroy even the most heavily fortified targets. The prime minister reported that Israel is 'ahead of schedule' in its campaign, having already destroyed at least half of Iran's missile launchers and eliminated key military leaders. He highlighted ongoing strikes against paramilitary forces such as the Basij militia, which plays a critical role in suppressing dissent within Iran. Netanyahu also noted that Israel has inflicted 'heavy damage' on the regime's internal security apparatus and will continue to target symbols of the Iranian government. While Israel is prepared to act independently, Netanyahu acknowledged the importance of US support. He revealed that he speaks with President Trump almost daily and described their conversations as 'very good.' However, he declined to disclose details, saying, 'Let's not call on the historical archive to release itself just yet.' Netanyahu praised Trump's recognition of Israel's right to self-defense, contrasting it with former President Joe Biden's attempts to restrict Israeli operations against Iranian proxies. On the question of regime change, Netanyahu reiterated that it is ultimately up to the Iranian people. 'The issue of regime change or the downfall of this administration primarily concerns the Iranian populace,' he said. Nonetheless, he emphasized that Israel is striking government targets and symbols of the regime and that 'there's more to come.' Netanyahu described Iran's Supreme Leader as a 'deranged ayatollah' threatening the future of the Jewish people and stressed that Israel will do 'everything necessary' to neutralize the existential threat posed by Iran's nuclear ambitions. Asked whether Khamenei is a dead man walking, he replied: "I gave instructions that no one is immune. I prefer not to deal with [making] headlines and to let actions speak for themselves." 'During a war words have to be chosen with care, and actions with precision," he said adding that he expects this 'from my ministers as well", an implied criticism of defense minister Israel Katz, who has been publicly threatening Khamenei.

The Targets Are Not Nuclear Warheads! - Jordan News
After several fiery days of direct confrontation between the Zionist entity and Iran, the picture is gradually becoming clearer. Today, it is possible to more accurately read the directions, motives, and dimensions of this war—unlike the first two nights of the conflict, when fog dominated the scene, information was scarce, and we could do little more than speculate amid a dense gray haze. اضافة اعلان Now, following the assassination of prominent Iranian military leaders like Mohammad Bagheri and Amir Ali Hajizadeh, along with surprise strikes in Tehran, it has become evident that we are witnessing a full-fledged assassination war. This war is not detached from recent events: from the mysterious crash of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi's plane, to the elimination of Hamas leaders including Ismail Haniyeh, and the unprecedented direct assassinations of Hezbollah figures in Lebanon, notably Hassan Nasrallah. These indicators collectively reveal that the Zionist entity is orchestrating a highly precise military and intelligence operation spanning the entire region. It is based on vast classified intelligence and detailed maps of strategic figures and decision-making centers in Tehran, Gaza, and Beirut—part of a long-standing shadow war that is increasingly surfacing into the open. From this angle, I will analyze the sequence of events starting with the sudden crash of Raisi's plane—a moment that prompted many to ask: who benefits?—and continuing up to the latest strike on Tehran, which has made the overall scenario far clearer. What we are witnessing is a Zionist liquidation project aimed at dismantling the Iranian decision-making structure both inside and outside the country, gradually neutralizing its military and political symbols, and assassinating leaders of the resistance axis in Lebanon and Palestine. Let us recall a parallel scene in Gaza: during the recent war, the Zionist entity monitored the movements of Ismail Haniyeh and other senior Hamas figures from the outset. Its leaders spoke openly about targeting those they labeled "decision-makers," placing them at the top of their list of objectives. At the same time, neither Hebrew-language media nor Zionist military officials concealed the fact that Hassan Nasrallah and top Hezbollah commanders were prime targets, and that their elimination had become a real possibility amid the escalating tensions on the Lebanese front. What's new now is that the battlefield has expanded beyond Gaza and Lebanon and reached the heart of Tehran. What took place early last Friday was a dual message: any military or political figure involved in managing nuclear or security files, or supporting resistance movements, is a legitimate target—whether in an office in Tehran, aboard a presidential aircraft, or in Beirut's southern suburbs. These operations, like those previously seen in Gaza and Lebanon, aim to paralyze leadership nerves before striking the field. When the Zionist entity succeeds in carrying out such high-level assassinations in a matter of days, it reflects the sheer volume of precise intelligence it possesses regarding the movements, locations, and plans of these leaders. This confirms that Israel has, over many years, conducted a clandestine information war within enemy institutions, and is now reaping its results publicly. The most alarming aspect of this war—which had long been conducted in silence and with cunning—is that it has now become an overt war. Israel no longer hesitates to claim responsibility for these operations, nor does it hide its intent to continue assassinations until the last figure in the Iranian and resistance project is eliminated, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei himself. What makes the situation even more dangerous is that these operations are carried out with the knowledge—and at times with the backing—of influential international powers, leaving Tehran, Gaza, and Beirut politically and intelligence-wise encircled and in an extremely vulnerable position. Regionally, we are therefore facing a war aimed at eliminating decision-makers and strategic minds, not nuclear warheads. From Raisi's mysterious plane crash, to the targeted leaders in Gaza, to the burning heart of Tehran and the besieged southern suburbs of Beirut—the message is clear. While Iran, Hezbollah, and resistance movements are betting on a long war of attrition, it seems the Zionist entity has chosen to break this equation by striking the heads and letting the limbs flail. If this war continues in this manner, it will inevitably reshape the map of influence in the Middle East in the coming months.

Netanyahu declares Israel 'will exact the full price' after Iranian strike hits hospital in Israel
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared in a post on X that Israel "will exact the full price from the tyrants in Tehran," after a missile hit a hospital in the Jewish state. "This morning, Iran's terrorist tyrants launched missiles at Soroka Hospital in Beersheba and at a civilian population in the center of the country," Netanyahu said in the Hebrew-language post on X, according to a translation into English. "Significant damage to the largest hospital in southern Israel," Fox News Channel's chief foreign correspondent Trey Yingst noted in a post on X. "It took a direct hit from an Iranian ballistic missile." Israel, a close U.S. ally, noted in post on X, "The Iranian regime targeted Soroka Hospital in Beersheba with a ballistic missile—hitting a major medical center. We will not stand by. We will continue doing what must be done to defend our people." Fox News Poll: Voters Think Iran Poses A Real Threat To Us Security, But Split On Israel's Strikes The emergency medical services organization Magen David Adom noted, "Following missile strikes across Israel, 3 seriously injured, 2 moderately injured, 42 with shrapnel/blast injuries, and 18 hurt on route to shelters. MDA teams continue to search affected areas." Read On The Fox News App Israel began bombarding the Islamic Republic of Iran last week in a bid to stamp out the threat posed by the hostile radical regime's nuclear weapons ambitions, and has continued attacking this week. The Israel Defense Forces noted in a post on X that it struck several targets, including an "Inactive nuclear reactor in Arak—a key component in plutonium production," "A nuclear weapons development site near Natanz," "Ballistic missile & air defense production facilities," and "Radar systems & missile storage sites." Iran Strikes Major Israeli Hospital After Claiming Israel Hit Its Arak Heavy Water Reactor With the war raging, the possibility of U.S. military intervention to aid Israel's effort has been looming large. U.S. President Donald Trump has left the door open to the prospect, noting on Wednesday that he "may do it," and "may not do it,' but "nobody knows what" he will do. Trump Weighs Striking Iranian Nuclear Facilities: 'I May Do It, I May Not Do It' Trump declared in a Tuesday Truth Social post, "We know exactly where the so-called 'Supreme Leader' is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there - We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now. But we don't want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. Our patience is wearing thin. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"Original article source: Netanyahu declares Israel 'will exact the full price' after Iranian strike hits hospital in Israel
