Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed today (Sunday) at the start of the government meeting the investigation into the dismissed Minister of Defense Yifat Tomer Yerushalmi, due to the leak of the video from "Yemen Field" and the sabotage moves - and defined the leak of the video from Yemen Field as "the greatest propaganda attack that has ever happened to the State of Israel.". <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Netanyahu addressed the affair for the first time: "The incident in the Yemeni field caused enormous image damage to the State of Israel and the IDF, to our soldiers. This is perhaps the most severe propaganda attack that the State of Israel has experienced since its establishment. This requires an independent investigation, and I expect that one will also be carried out.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Netanyahu referred to the war zones: "I would like to talk about our struggle against the axis elements. The Iranian axis has suffered a tremendous blow. In many places we have broken it, and even in places where we have broken it, it still exists, licking its wounds, trying to recover. Our effort is to deprive it of the ability to recover, and that is what we are doing on the various fronts.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first front is in Gaza, where Hamas has suffered crushing blows, is a shadow of what it was, but is also trying to recover. We are operating in four locations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
One - the return of our hostages. His attempts are pathetic, to try to mislead us, the US and the world, they will of course not succeed and we will gradually return all our hostages. We are committed to this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second thing - there are still pockets of Hamas in the territories we control in Gaza and we are systematically eliminating them. There are two in Rafah and Khan Yunis, and they will be eliminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The third thing - this is the whole question of risk to our forces, and my instruction is unequivocal: If there is an attempt to harm our forces, harm those who harm and also their organization for the purpose of protecting our forces, this is our determination. We report to our American friends, we do not ask for their permission. You have to understand this, because I hear things that are simply not true. We maintain the ultimate security responsibility and will not give up on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fourth thing - is the dismantling and disarmament of Hamas. Disarming Hamas, disarming the Gaza Strip, this is the rule we advocate, this is the rule agreed upon between me and President Trump, and this is how we operate with a clear outline. Of course, if it is not done one way, then it will be done the other way, and everyone knows what the other way is and who will do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regarding Lebanon - Hezbollah is indeed being hit all the time, including these days, but it is also trying to arm itself and recover. We expect the Lebanese government to do what it has pledged to do, namely to disarm Hezbollah, but it is clear that we will exercise our right to self-defense, as this is stipulated in the terms of the ceasefire. We will not allow Lebanon to become a renewed front against us and we will act as necessary.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Netanyahu added: "The third place to pay attention to, the Israeli public doesn't pay attention to, is the Houthis. The Houthis seem like a negligible nuisance. From time to time they fire a ballistic missile at us, we intercept these missiles. It seems like a small thing. It's not a small thing, it's a very big threat from a movement that is fanatical, in the most extreme way imaginable, that has the ability to produce its own ballistic missiles and other weapons and is committed to what they call 'the plan to destroy Israel.'". <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\""This is not a theoretical thing, it is something that can develop over time, it is of course coordinated with Iran and we will do everything necessary to eliminate this threat as well. In other words, we are still operating against an axis that is still, although it is broken and beaten, trying to renew its plans to destroy Israel. We will, to put it mildly, deprive it of the capabilities to do so.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Prime Minister referred to the construction of the 'Revival Tower' at the Soroka Medical Center in Be'er Sheva: "At the same time, we are building our country, developing it. And today, in a special way, I want to note what we are doing in the Negev, alongside the healthcare system in Be'er Sheva, which actually serves the entire Negev. Today, we will decide in the government on an addition of 360 million shekels to build a new tower in Soroka, the hospitalization tower, which will also be protected. In total, the investment is over a billion shekels - one third from the government, one third from the Clalit Health Fund, and one third from our friends Sylvan Adams.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\""Silvan is a great contributor to the State of Israel and does it with great generosity and from the heart, sometimes even with a difficult effort, a difficult aerobic effort on a bicycle. But you raise the profile of Israel in various fields and you truly make a great contribution. I want to thank you on my behalf, on behalf of the government of Israel and on behalf of the citizens of Israel and certainly on behalf of the residents of the Negev.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The donor sat next to Netanyahu. And Netanyahu added with a laugh: "Anyone who donates a hundred million dollars will get a seat next to me at the government meeting and free speech.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sylvain Adams said: "Prime Minister, ministers and friends, thank you for inviting me today. It is a great honor for me to make a contribution of $100 million to rehabilitate, build and transform Soroka Hospital into the best and most advanced hospital in the Middle East.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, thank you for your leadership during the most difficult period since the founding of the state. We were devastated on that Black Sabbath, but you led the country as we fought back with innovation that sometimes seemed like science fiction, with incredible courage and strength. We are stronger and more confident today than we were on October 6th thanks to your wisdom, guidance, and courage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
