Israel Katz: “The arrogant empire that threatened to destroy Israel has collapsed.”

The IDF will continue to defend our borders and our citizens from the peak of Mount Hermon, the mountains of Lebanon, the areas of our land in the Samaria region, and most of the territory of Gaza.

Our policy for defending the borders of the State of Israel, as led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and by me as Defense Minister together with the IDF, is clear.

Anyone who smuggles weapons, equipment, or funds to terrorist organizations in Gaza is part of the terrorist network itself and will pay a heavy price.

The prime minister made an important decision to attack, and we must expand the armaments even further. The Treasury needs to give more money, and I agree that much more needs to be given to the IDF.
