Kartavya Desk Staff

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday called on world leaders to join the war in West Asia against Iran after claiming that the Islamic nation now has the “capacity to reach deep into Europe,” adding that Tehran’s missile threats, including long-range missiles put “the entire world in its sights”.

Netanyahu made the comments as he visited the site in Arad which was attacked by Iran on Saturday evening where over 80 people were injured.

Iranian state media reported the strikes were in response to an attack on Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility on Saturday.

Here are some statements made by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu:

• 01Netanyahu on Arad site being ‘lucky’Israeli PM Netanyahu said the Iranian strike on Arad is a “proof that Iran endangers the entire world, the last 48 hours have given it. In the last 48 hours, Iran targeted a civilian area. They're doing that as a mass murder weapon. Luckily, no one was killed, but that's due to luck, not their intention. Their intention is to murder civilians.”
