Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, on Wednesday during his third visit to Israeli forces in the occupied strip of Syria, reiterated his claim that the collapse of the Iranian government is imminent. This visit comes amid rising tensions between Israel and Iran, and Damascus strongly condemned this action.
Condemnation from Damascus
The Syrian government, in response to Netanyahu's visit, labeled this action as a "clear violation of its sovereignty" and strongly urged the international community to pay attention to this issue. Syrian officials emphasized that Israel's actions are not only a violation of international law but also a threat to regional stability.
During this visit, Netanyahu told Israeli soldiers: "We are in a battle aimed at preventing Iranian influence in the region, and we will soon witness the collapse of this regime." These remarks come as tensions between the United States and Iran continue, and Netanyahu seeks international support to maintain pressure on Tehran.
Continuation of the Cold War in the Region
The Cold War between Israel and Iran is considered one of the key security issues in the Middle East. Netanyahu makes these claims while many analysts believe that the current situation in the region requires diplomacy and dialogue, not an escalation of tensions.
This visit and Netanyahu's statements have once again drawn attention to the Syrian crisis and Israel's role in it. While many countries are seeking political solutions to this crisis, Israel's actions in occupying parts of Syria continue to make headlines.
