Naftali Bennet says Israel must destroy Iran's nuclear programme 'now'

Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett called on Israel to act “now” to destroy Iran’s nuclear programme.

"Israel has now its greatest opportunity in 50 years, to change the face of the Middle East. The leadership of Iran, which used to be good at chess, made a terrible mistake this evening," he wrote on X.

"We must act *now* to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, its central energy facilities, and to fatally cripple this terrorist regime," he said.
