(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Netanyahu told the Security Cabinet Monday night that Israel has achieved all of the objectives of Operation Rising Lion, and much more. Israel has removed a double existential threat - on both the nuclear issue and regarding ballistic missiles. The IDF also achieved complete air superiority in the skies over Tehran, struck a severe blow to the military leadership, and destroyed dozens of Iran's main regime targets. Israel thanks President Trump and the U.S. for their defensive support and for their participation in removing the Iranian nuclear threat. In light of having achieved the objectives of the operation, and in full coordination with President Trump, Israel agrees to the President's proposal for a bilateral ceasefire. Israel will respond forcefully to any violation of the ceasefire.
