Iran appears to be preparing a ground invasion in Lebanon to fight Hezbollah. Is it possible they want to tone things down with Iran before embarking on it?
Comments from Netanyahu in his first press conference since the war:
- Iran is no longer the same Iran
- Dealing heavy blows to Iran’s revolutionary guard
- Speak with Trump nearly every day
- We are hitting Iran forces in the streets and at checkpoints
- We are reshaping the Middle East and emerging as a regional power, and in some cases, a global power
- We can create the conditions for regime change but it’s up to Iranian people to take to the streets
- Says he wouldn’t take out any life insurance on Khamenei and Qassem
Separately, an IRGC official is in Iran’s state media saying:
- If our energy infrastructures are attacked, we will “burn” the regions oil and gas infrastructure
Earlier this week, the US reportedly chastized Israel for attacking Iran’s fuel depots. In response, Iran has already bombed some energy infrastructure, including storage in Oman.
