Israeli statement that increases tension: We will cut off the head of the snake

Following the Hamas attack on southern Israel on Saturday, October 7, and the subsequent kidnapping of hostages, as Israel’s systematic attacks on civilian areas continue, came an alarming statement from the Tel-Aviv government.

Barkat, one of Netanyahu’s most trusted figures, signaled that they could attack Iran.

Speaking to the British Mail on Sunday, Israeli Economy Minister Nir Barkat noted in an exclusive interview that the war could gradually extend. As mediation efforts and telephone diplomacy continue in the region, Barkat said: “If Hezbollah, Iran’s satellite terrorist organization in Lebanon, attacks Israel, all of Iran’s ayatollahs will be eliminated from the world.”

Nir Barkat’s statements to the British media became a hot topic.

IT WAS IMPLIED THAT THE HEAD OF THE SNAKE IS IRAN

Barkat, one of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s most trusted names, said: “Israel will not only neutralize Hezbollah. On the contrary, if the terrorist organization opens a northern front, we will target Iran directly. Iran’s goal is to attack Israel from all fronts. If we find out that they attacked Israel, we will not only retaliate, but we will take the head of the snake, that is, Iran. “The ayatollahs in Iran will not sleep well at night, and if they open a front in the north, we will be sure that they will be largely held accountable,” he said.

Barkat said: “Lebanon and Hezbollah will pay a high price, similar to what Hamas paid. But this is not enough. The message is very clear. Then we will go after the rulers of Iran. When will we do this? “This is what we decided,” he commented.

“THEY LAUNCHED AN AIR NOTIFICATION TO GAZA”

On the other hand, the Israeli army declared that anyone who chooses to stay in the north of the Gaza Strip and does not go to the south may be considered a “collaborator of terrorists.”

The Israeli army, which has been under intense bombardment on the blockaded Gaza Strip since October 7, said in statements titled “urgent warning” and airdropped to northern Gaza: “To the residents of the Gaza Strip: being “Anyone who does not go to the south of the Gaza Valley and chooses not to evacuate the northern region can be considered a collaborator of the terrorist organization,” he said.

On the other hand, Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee, who evaluated the photographs of the warning papers that appeared on social media and generated reactions, confirmed that the statements written on these papers belonged to the Israeli army.

In the Gaza Strip, which has a population of approximately 2.3 million, approximately half of the population lives in the north of the region.

While Israeli officials have stated that a ground operation against the Gaza Strip will definitely take place, the Israeli military is pressuring more than a million civilians in northern Gaza to head south.

In Israel’s attack on Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza on October 17, 471 people were killed and 342 injured, 28 of them seriously.

On October 20, the Israeli army called for the immediate evacuation of the Jerusalem hospital, located in southern Gaza, “in preparation for the bombing.” Yesterday, the Israeli army warned of the evacuation of 20 hospitals in northern Gaza.
