Iran's Nuclear Vulnerability Sparks Debate on Weaponization
Israel's incoming Defense Minister Yisrael Katz has stated that the current conditions are optimal for targeting Iran's nuclear program, citing recent successful Israeli airstrikes and a broad national consensus. Katz emphasized the superiority of the Israeli Air Force over Iran's air defenses and highlighted the opportunity to thwart the Iranian nuclear threat. Despite calls for action from former prime ministers, the government has so far refrained from directly striking Iran's nuclear facilities, focusing instead on missile production and air defense sites. Katz also mentioned that there would be no ceasefire with Hezbollah until certain conditions are met.
