Israel’s foreign minister, Israel Katz, spearheads a worldwide diplomatic campaign against Iran in response to the recent Iranian missile assault on Israeli territories.
In a proactive move, Katz personally reached out to 32 nations and engaged in discussions with numerous foreign dignitaries to garner support for stringent measures against Iran. Advocating for sanctions on Iran’s missile program and the designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist entity, Katz emphasizes the urgency of curbing Tehran’s aggressive actions.
Asserting that decisive action is imperative to thwart Iran’s belligerence, Katz underscores the need for immediate intervention to prevent further escalation of hostilities. He emphasizes the significance of combining diplomatic efforts with a robust military response to deter future attacks.
Israel’s military leadership echoes Katz’s stance, signaling a firm resolve to retaliate against Iran’s provocative actions. The recent missile barrage, comprising over 300 projectiles, underscores the gravity of the threat posed by Iran.
The escalation stems from tensions following a suspected Israeli airstrike on an Iranian diplomatic compound in Syria, resulting in casualties among Iranian military personnel. Iran claims the missile barrage was a retaliatory measure against Israel’s alleged aggression.
