According to reports circulating within government circles in the U.S., Israel had considered a daring mission to assassinate Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. This shocking news was met with objection from current U.S. President Donald Trump.
During an interview with U.S. broadcaster ABC News, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that such an operation would not escalate the conflict between Israel and Iran; rather, it would put an end to it. "They yearn for an eternal war, and they're pushing us to the brink of a nuclear conflict," Netanyahu argued. Israel's attacks aim to "end this aggression," he explained, adding that the only way to achieve this is by standing against the forces of evil.
Netanyahu was questioned about media reports of an Israeli plan to kill Khamenei. Despite U.S. President Trump expressing his opposition to this plan, there were indications that Israel had informed the U.S. of its capability to undertake such an operation.
In a response to these reports, Netanyahu told U.S. broadcaster Fox News, "There are so many false reports about conversations that never happened, and I won't comment on them." However, he hinted that a change in Iran's regime might be a possible result of ongoing military actions, though he clarified that it was not the explicit objective.
When it comes to the Iranian nuclear program and their increasingly tense relationship with Israel, international concern about the ongoing conflict arises. Both sides have threatened to intensify their attacks, igniting fears the Middle East could be plunged into chaos. Leaders from Germany and China have called for both parties to take immediate action to de-escalate tensions.
