Bibi Thanks Don for Israel's Allyship Amidst Grueling Fight Against the Ayatollah Regime
Netanyahu extends gratitude to Trump for his unwavering backing
In a candid prime-time address, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed gratitude towards US President Donald Trump for his steadfast support of Israel's defense against Iran. Netanyahu affectionately referred to Trump as a "champion of Israel," thanking him for standing by them and significantly aiding in the protection of Israeli airspace.
Israel is determined to eradicate Iran's nuclear threat and ballistic missile capabilities, and the Israeli military is leaving no stone unturned in their relentless offensive against Iran's authoritative regime. Netanyahu declared that the regime's nuclear facilities, weapons stockpiles, headquarters, symbols of power, and rocket launch sites have all become notable targets in this unending conflict. Regrettably, there have been "heavy casualties and substantial losses" along the way.
Donald Trump, ever the enigmatic leader, refused to give a definitive answer regarding whether the US would join Israel's military intervention. He remained coy, stating that a decision wasn't imminent and that, in his own cryptic way, "anything is possible." Trump's vague comments further fueled speculation that aggressive measures might be undertaken against Iran, potentially including regime change in Tehran.
Meanwhile, UN Secretary-General António Guterres cautioned against any additional military intervention in the Middle East, forewarning of the potential catastrophic implications for both parties involved and the entire region. Guterres issued a dire plea, urging all parties to avoid further internationalization of the conflict, as any further military actions could have far-reaching and devastating consequences on international peace and security.
Tensions between Israel and Iran escalated dramatically at the beginning of June 2025, with Israel launching a massive, multifaceted attack on Iranian targets. Israeli forces bombarded nuclear facilities and military installations, while simultaneously taking out several of Iran's top military commanders. Iran responded with a barrage of drone and rocket attacks on Israeli cities, heightening tensions even further.

The Commission has also been asked to submit a proposal for a regulation on the protection of the environment, given the potential impacts of war-and-conflicts, such as those between Israel and Iran, on general-news agendas and the global political landscape.
Despite the ongoing conflicts occurring in areas like the Middle East, UN Secretary-General António Guterres continues to advocate for peaceful diplomacy, emphasizing the importance of avoiding any additional military intervention that could exacerbate war-and-conflicts and disrupt the global political climate, including issues related to the protection of the environment.
