During a situation assessment with the Chief of Staff, the head of the Mossad, and senior security officials, Defense Minister Yisrael Katz said that the State of Israel and the public are proud of the security forces.
""The State of Israel, the Israeli public is proud of you. Continue to peel the snake's skin piece by piece - peel the nuclear weapons, peel the IDF, peel the missiles, peel all targets - including targets of the regime in Tehran. Khamenei is turning Tehran into Beirut and the residents of Tehran into hostages.""
""First of all, I want to congratulate you on your great achievements. The entire State of Israel, the Israeli public, is proud of you. I can tell you that even following the difficult night that the State of Israel went through, I had the opportunity to speak with the mayors of Bat Yam and Rehovot.
""I said I was coming here for a situation assessment meeting, the continuation of preparations - and they said: 'Tell the Chief of Staff and all the officers that there is a strong rear here, continue to do what you are doing, we are with you, we back you up and the entire public here supports you.'.
""I think there is an expression of trust here from the public through its representatives, the entire public, in this amazing work.".
Minister Katz emphasized: "The plan is operating as usual and even beyond that. The attack on Tehran and its nuclear systems, weapons production systems, air defense, and missiles - is a powerful attack, it is the one that actually removes the threats of destruction from the State of Israel.".
""You are doing this and we, of course, are attacking it together as a political and security level - together with the entire public.".
The minister added: "And continue - Chief of Staff, to peel the snake's skin. This is the head of the snake, continue to peel the snake's skin piece by piece, peel the nuclear, peel the Haganah, peel the missiles, peel all the targets - including the targets of the regime in Tehran.".
""And whoever comes and tries to use the Israeli home front to subdue us and harm us will understand that despite the heavy price, he will not succeed, but he is essentially now turning Tehran into Beirut and turning the residents of Tehran into hostages - and here too, activity will be carried out in the same places as we have already mentioned, where there are weapons production facilities, they will be given the order to evacuate and evacuate so that the IDF can continue to harm all targets.".
""So I also came, of course, to strengthen you, through you the incredible array of Military Intelligence, the pilots, and the entire array that works here with unprecedented global achievements, to wish you success and to prepare together for the future.".
