Israeli minister Eli Cohen said Israel would strike Iran again if Tehran attempts to rebuild its nuclear or ballistic missile programmes, even if it reaches an agreement with the United States.
“If Iran makes the mistake and tries to renew its nuclear programme or ballistic missile programme, even if there is an agreement with the United States, we will be there to attack,” Cohen told Israeli news site Ynet in an interview on Saturday.
