He was accompanied by senior security officials including Israel\u2019s Defense Minister, the Chief of Staff of the <strong>Israel Defense Forces (IDF)<\/strong>, the head of the <strong>Mossad<\/strong>, the commander of the <strong>Israeli Air Force<\/strong>, and other top military leaders.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, Netanyahu claimed Israeli forces had eliminated two senior figures he described as \u201ctop terrorist chieftains\u201d associated with the Iranian regime. He also said Israeli aircraft were continuing operations targeting what he called \u201cterror operatives\u201d across different locations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur aircraft are hitting the terror operatives on the ground, in the crossroads, in the city squares,\u201d Netanyahu said in the recorded message.<\/p>\n<h3>Message to the Iranian People<\/h3>\n<p>Addressing the Iranian public directly, Netanyahu linked the military action to the upcoming <strong>Nowruz<\/strong> celebrations, the Persian New Year observed across Iran and other parts of the region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is meant to enable the brave people of Iran to celebrate the Festival of Fire,\u201d he said, referring to <strong>Chaharshanbe Suri<\/strong>, a traditional fire festival held before Nowruz.<\/p>\n<p>Netanyahu ended his message by wishing the Iranian people a happy new year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo celebrate and Happy Nowruz. We\u2019re watching from above,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<h3>Rising Regional Tensions<\/h3>\n<p>The remarks come amid heightened tensions between <strong>Israel<\/strong> and <strong>Iran<\/strong>, with both countries accusing each other of supporting hostile activities across the Middle East. Israel has repeatedly warned about Iran\u2019s regional influence and alleged backing of militant groups, while Tehran has condemned Israeli military actions.<\/p>\n<p>Netanyahu\u2019s message, delivered directly to the Iranian public during the culturally significant Nowruz period, reflects Israel\u2019s attempt to distinguish between Iran\u2019s government and its citizens while continuing its security operations.<\/p>\n<p>Observers say such messaging is part of a broader strategic communication effort aimed at influencing public perception inside Iran while signaling Israel\u2019s military capabilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Benjamin Netanyahu Issues Nowruz Message to Iranians from Military Command Center, Claims Israeli Strikes on Top Terror Leaders. &nbsp;
