Iran will pay, the Israeli Prime Minister is threatened

“Iran will pay a very high price for the deliberate murder of civilians, women and children,” Netanyahu said according to his office. “We will achieve our goal and plant a hard blow. They will feel our strength.”
According to the Israeli government spokeswoman, at least six people, including two children, lost their life on the impact of an Iranian rocket in Bat Jam south of Tel Aviv early morning. Rescuers continued to search for seven missing ruins. There is a risk that a largely damaged building will collapse, DPA said.
Bat Jam also visited Israeli President Yicchak Herzog, who described Israel’s struggle against Iran as the defense of not only his own country, “but also the Middle East, humanity itself and world peace”.
“Our goal is to change the reality in the Middle East,” Herzog said. “It is not possible for the Empire to further attack, sending its representatives, terror and missiles, and, of course, it has developed nuclear capacities that are most dangerous for humanity,” he said, calling for leaders of the G7 countries who meet at the Canada summit to stand by Israel.
