There are no longer terrorist armies on our borders.

We have created security zones around Gaza and inside Gaza, around Lebanon and inside Lebanon, and around the Golan and inside Syria.

Like Israel's previous wars, the War of Revival revealed the extraordinary strength of our young generation.

We, in the government, made thoughtful and courageous decisions to act step by step against those who sought our destruction.

Our heroic warriors, soldiers, and commanders, male and female soldiers, acted step by step with great courage, on land, in the air, and at sea, to crush the Iranian Axis of Evil that sought to encircle us in a ring of terror.

We will respond to Trump's rhetoric with action, and we will defend every inch of our land.

The Houthis, a declared terrorist organization, are Tehran’s acolytes. They have studied the IRGC playbook.

And here’s what happens: When Iran kidnaps civilians, the Houthis do too. When Iran hides behind human shields, the Houthis do as well. When Iran targets civilian infrastructure across the Gulf, so do the Houthis.

When Iran chants “Death to Israel” and “Death to America,” the Houthis repeat it word for word.

I will not allow the establishment of a Palestinian state or the surrender of territory.

The IRGC said the attacks were retaliation for earlier U.S. strikes on Iranian coastal military positions and warned that further U.S. attacks would be met with "unexpected responses."

It also threatened that, as long as U.S. forces remain in the region, "not a single drop of oil or gas will be exported" and reopening the Strait of Hormuz will be further delayed.

The United States came and violated all of its commitments under this Memorandum of Understanding.

Actually, I should use a stronger word. The term "violation" might not even be adequate.

With the action the US announced tonight — the termination of the lifting of Iran's naval blockade — the United States has essentially cast aside all of its commitments under the Islamabad Understanding.

It has completely dismantled the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding.
