Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his country may act against Iran itself, not just its allies in the Middle East, after border incidents in Syria brought the Middle East foes closer to direct confrontation.
In his first address to the annual Munich Security Conference, which draws security and defence officials, and diplomats from across Europe and the US, Mr Netanyahu held up a piece of what he said was an Iranian drone that flew into Israeli airspace this month.
“Israel will not allow the regime to put a noose of terror around our neck,” he said.
Mr Netanyahu issued a clear warning to Iran: “We will act without hesitation to defend ourselves, and we will act not just against Iran’s proxies that are attacking us, but against Iran itself.”
