“At the beginning of the operation, I promised you that Iran’s nuclear facilities would be destroyed, one way or another. This promise was kept,” Netanyahu says.
He says that Trump called him immediately after the US operation was finished in order to congratulate him in what was a “very warm and moving conversation.
“He congratulated me, he congratulated our army and he congratulated our people,” Netanyahu says, adding that he did the same.
“President Trump is leading the free world with strength. He is a great friend of Israel, a friend like no other,” the premier continues, thanking Trump profusely.
