Israel condemns the barbaric assault by pro-Palestinian demonstrators in Syria on the UAE Embassy and on the Head of Mission’s residence.
Diplomatic premises must be protected in accordance with the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, and all those who carried out this attack must be held accountable.

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar:

"I commend the President and the U.S. Military for successfully executing the daring search and rescue operation for the American F-15 pilot and crew member officer in Iran.
Israeli and American pilots and crew members are the best and bravest in the world, flying long distances and operating over the skies of Iran. Together, they are crippling the Iranian terror regime and making the world a safer place.

We salute them!"

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:

"I congratulate President Trump on the rescue of a brave American pilot by America’s courageous warriors".

Historic ruling: U.S. appeals court confirms $656M verdict against the PLO & Palestinian Authority's responsibility for terror.

A major step in holding the Palestinian authority accountable for its long-lasting terror support - financially and legally.

By choking the Strait of Hormuz, the Iranian regime is weaponizing global energy and holding the world economy hostage.

This is the Mullahs’ formula for geopolitical blackmail.

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar:

Our hearts ache for the four victims murdered in the Iranian missile strike on Haifa - Vladimir and Lena Gershovich, their son Dmitry, and his partner Lucille-Jane.
The four family members were together in their final moments. Two generations of one family were pulled lifeless from the rubble.
The Iranian terror regime is using a strategy of war crimes.
It deliberately targets civilian populations. It murders civilians.

We will not forget the fallen and the murdered.
May their memory be a blessing.

A senior Iranian regime official openly calls for slaughter and sends children into war:
“Kill! Kill!”
“Massacres in Jerusalem.”
“Send your children to the roadblocks.”

The Iranian mullah regime thrives on oppressing its own people and exporting terror across the world.

We strongly condemn the terrorist attack on the Israeli Consulate in Istanbul today.
We appreciate the Turkish security forces’ swift action in thwarting this attack.
Israeli missions around the world have been subjected to countless threats and terrorist attacks.
Terror will not deter us.

UAE air defenses intercept Iranian missiles and drones.
Qatar condemns Iran’s targeting of civilians and its assault on regional stability.

From the Gulf and beyond, the message is clear:
The Iranian regime continues to strike multiple countries, spreading chaos and terror across the region.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: “We are crushing the terrorist regime in Iran. But we are doing so with even greater vigor, and with increasing force. Yesterday, we destroyed transport planes and dozens of helicopters. Today, we attacked the train tracks and bridges used by the Revolutionary Guards.”

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, today (Tuesday, 7 April 2026) [translated from Hebrew]:

"I tell you constantly that we are crushing the terrorist regime in Iran. But we are doing so with even greater vigor, and with increasing force.

Yesterday, our pilots destroyed transport planes and dozens of helicopters at an Iranian Air Force base. Today, they attacked the train tracks and bridges used by the Revolutionary Guards. They use these to transport raw materials for weapons, the weapons themselves, and the operatives who attack us, the US, and the countries of the region, the same operatives who also oppress the Iranian people.

And this is the central point: These actions, which I approved together with the Minister of Defense, are not intended to attack the Iranian people. On the contrary, they are intended to weaken and crush the terrorist regime that has oppressed them for 47 years.

This is no longer the same Iran, nor is it the same Israel. We are changing the balance of power from one end to the other."

Weapons in houses. Launchers in neighborhoods. Call it what it is: a Hezbollah village. Civilians turned into human shields.

Prime Minister’s Office announcement on Wednesday, 8 April 2026:

Israel supports President Trump's decision to suspend strikes against Iran for two weeks subject to Iran immediately opening the straits and stopping all attacks on the US, Israel and countries in the region.

Israel also supports the US effort to ensure that Iran no longer poses a nuclear, missile and terror threat to America, Israel, Iran's Arab neighbors and the world.

The United States has told Israel that it is committed to achieving these goals, shares by the US, Israel and Israel's regional allies, in the upcoming negotiations.

The two-weeks ceasefire does not include Lebanon.

Lebanon’s president and prime minister have no shame in attacking Israel for doing what they should have done: striking Hezbollah.

After thousands of attacks on Israel from their territory, they offer no apology - and rather come with demands.

They did not disarm Hezbollah. They did not and do not prevent it from firing on Israel. They lied when they claimed they had demilitarized the area up to the Litani.

Now we must do it instead of them.
Hezbollah ministers still serve in the Lebanese government, and the Iranian ambassador remains in Beirut, openly defying their own decisions.

It is time to start acting against Hezbollah. In deeds, not words. And if you are incapable of doing so - at least do not get in the way.

We mourn the loss of Staff Sergeant Touvel Yosef Lifshiz, 20, from Beit She‘an, a soldier in the 13th Battalion, Golani Brigade, who fell in combat in Lebanon.

Our hearts are with his family and loved ones.
🕯️ May his memory be a blessing.

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar:

"I spoke with my friend, German Foreign Minister Wadephul, following the announcement of the ceasefire in the war with Iran.

The United States and Israel have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to achieving the goal that matters to the entire international community: preventing the Iranian terror regime from obtaining nuclear weapons.

I believe this commitment will also be reflected in diplomatic efforts, as President Trump made clear today.

I noted that Lebanon, from which Hezbollah operates against Israel and its citizens, is not Iranian territory and is not part of the ceasefire."
