Israel Katz said that Israel does not know where Iran’s uranium reserves are and if Israel feels the need, it can attack Iran again.
After the ceasefire between Iran and Israel, the tone of US President Donald Trump has changed. Top Iranian officials and sources in the Trump administration have informed that the US will give 20 to 30 billion dollars for Iran’s civil energy nuclear program and can also give relief in the sanctions imposed on it. Meanwhile, a statement has come from Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz.
Israel Katz said in an interview to various media channels including Israeli television channel 13 that the government started the war without knowing whether America would join it or not. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said that Israel does not know where the uranium reserves are, but if needed, it will attack Iran again. Sources in the Trump administration said that the US will not give money directly to Iran, but it will provide this help to Iran through its friends in Arab countries.
‘We will attack Iran again’, said Israel Katz
Katz told news outlets that if needed, Israel will attack Iran again. He told Channel 12, ‘We will not allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons and long-range missiles.’
Katz also admitted that Israel does not know the location of all Iran’s enriched uranium, but claimed that their military attacks have destroyed Tehran’s enrichment capabilities. Talking to Channel 12, he said about the uranium, ‘The material itself was not something that should have been taken out.’
‘We would have killed Khamenei but did not get a chance’, said Israel Kats
Israel Defense Minister Israel Katz said about the elimination of Khamenei, ‘If Khamenei was within our reach, we would have killed him. We had tried our best.’ Katz said, ‘Israel wanted to eliminate Khamenei, but did not get a chance to do so.’ When Katz was asked if Israel had sought permission from the US, he replied, ‘We don’t need anyone’s permission for these things.’
‘We don’t need permission from the US’, Israel Katz said
When Channel 13 asked him if he had taken permission from the US to kill Khamenei, Katz said, ‘We don’t need anyone’s permission to work in such matters.’ His statement about Khamenei is also important because US President Donald Trump had also said that Khamenei’s life was in danger during the war.
What did Trump say about Khamenei?
In a social media post on June 17, he said, ‘We know exactly where the so-called Supreme Leader is hiding. He is an easy target, but he is safe there – we will not eliminate (kill!) him, at least not now.’
There has been public debate in recent days about whether the attacks caused significant damage to the Iranian nuclear program, with some estimates suggesting that Iran was on track to acquire nuclear weapons within months.
Katz and other Israeli and US officials believe Iran has suffered significant damage. “It will take them years, but we (Israel) will not let that happen,” Katz said.
