Netanyahu Hails ‘Heaviest Blow’ to Iran as Israel Marks Holocaust Remembrance Day
During a ceremony at Jerusalem’s Yad Vashem Holocaust Remembrance Centre, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised what he called the “heaviest blow” dealt to Iran’s leadership in coordination with the United States. He asserted that the Iranian regime is now “weaker than ever” after more than two years of operations against what he described as the “Iranian axis of evil” in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and the West Bank. Netanyahu drew parallels between Iran’s nuclear sites at Natanz and Fordow and Nazi death camps, warning that without intervention those facilities could have become modern symbols of horror. His remarks came during a fragile two-week ceasefire with Iran following regional hostilities that began in late February. Despite the ceasefire with Tehran, Israeli forces remain engaged with Hezbollah militants in southern Lebanon. The national observance of Holocaust Remembrance Day began Monday evening, honoring the six million Jews murdered during World War II.
