Israeli control of Tehran airspace changes 'entire' campaign, Netanyahu says
Israel's control of the airspace over Tehran represents a "change in the entire" military "campaign," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in comments on Monday.
"When we control the skies over Tehran, we are striking these goals, the regime's targets, in contrast to the criminal regime of Iran that targets our citizens and comes to kill children and women," Netanyahu said.
"We are telling the citizens of Tehran: 'Get out' -- and we are acting," Netanyahu said.
At least 224 people have been killed in Iran since Israel launched its first strikes there on Friday, according to Iranian authorities. At least 24 people have been killed by Iranian retaliatory strikes in Israel, according to Netanyahu's office.
Iran and Israel have both accused the other of striking civilian targets. |
