Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:
To the proud people of Iran,
We are in the midst of one of the greatest military operations in history, Operation Rising Lion.
The Islamic regime, which has oppressed you for almost 50 years threatens to destroy our country, the State of Israel.
The objective of Israel's operation is to thwart the Islamic regime's nuclear and ballistic missile threat to us.
As we achieve our objective we are also clearing the path for you to achieve your freedom.
In the past 24 hours, we have taken out top military commanders, senior nuclear scientists, the Islamic regime's most significant enrichment facility and a large portion of its ballistic missile arsenal.
More is on the way.
The regime does not know what hit them, or what will hit them.
It has never been weaker.
This is your opportunity to stand up and let your voices be heard.
Woman, Life, Freedom
Zan, Zendegi, Azadi
As I said yesterday and many times before, Israel's fight is not against the Iranian people. Our fight is against the murderous Islamic regime that oppresses and impoverishes you.
The nation of Iran and the nation of Israel have been friends since the days of Cyrus the Great.
The time has come for the Iranian people to unite around its flag and its historic legacy, by standing up for your freedom from the evil and oppressive regime.
Mar-do-me sh-ja-ee Iran, noor bar tariki piruz ast.
Brave people of Iran, light defeats the darkness.

My wife and I and the entire State of Israel pray for the full recovery of the wounded in the vicious terror attack that took place in Boulder, Colorado.
This attack was aimed against peaceful people who wished to express their solidarity with the hostages held by Hamas, simply because they were Jews.
I trust the American authorities will prosecute the cold-blooded perpetrator to the fullest extent of the law and will do everything possible to prevent future attacks against innocent civilians.
“Last night in Washington something horrific happened.
A brutal terrorist shot in cold blood a young beautiful couple – Yaron Lischinsky and Sara Milgrim.
Yaron had just bought an engagement ring for Sarah. He was planning to give it to her in Jerusalem next week. They were planning to start a new and happy life together. Well, that tragically did not happen.
»
Yaron and Sarah weren’t the victims of a random crime. The terrorist who cruelly gunned them down did so for one reason and one reason alone – he wanted to kill Jews. And as he was taken away, he chanted, "Free Palestine!"
Prime Minister Netanyahu:
"Citizens of Israel, on behalf of all of you, I would like to first convey heartfelt condolences, from your hearts as well, to the dear families of Sgt. Yosef Yehuda Chirak & Staff Sgt. Danilo Mocanu, who fell in the Gaza Strip.
The War of Redemption has claimed a heavy price from us but it also has an incomparably clear and just purpose: To defeat Hamas, which perpetrated the atrocities of October 7, return all of our hostages and make certain that Gaza never again constitutes a threat to Israel.
These objectives are integrated – and we are committed to fully achieving them.
While we have already achieved much together, the work is not yet finished.
By asking Israel to end a defensive war for our survival before Hamas terrorists on our border are destroyed and by demanding a Palestinian state, »
the leaders in London, Ottowa and Paris are offering a huge prize for the genocidal attack on Israel on October 7 while inviting more such atrocities.
»
The war began on October 7 when Palestinian terrorists stormed our borders, murdered 1,200 innocent people and abducted over 250 more innocents to the dungeons of Gaza.
Israel accepts President Trump's vision and urges all European leaders to do the same.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, at the start of the Government meeting:
"Last night I held a security discussion with the participation of the Defense Minister, the faction heads, senior security establishment officials and the negotiating team.
Following a security discussion chaired by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and with the participation of the Defense Minister, senior security establishment officials and the negotiating team, it was decided:
Israel adopts the framework of US Presidential envoy Steve Witkoff for a temporary ceasefire during the Ramadan and Passover period.
On the first day of the framework, half of the living and deceased hostages will be released and upon its conclusion – if agreement is reached on a permanent ceasefire – the remaining living and deceased hostages will be released.
