Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reiterated his government’s commitment to defending the nation’s strategic interests amidst ongoing developments in Syria.
In a statement highlighted by Israel War Room on its verified Twitter account, Netanyahu emphasized Israel’s vigilance and readiness to respond to any threats emerging from its northern neighbor.
“Prime Minister Netanyahu says Israel is closely monitoring the situation in Syria and will defend Israeli interests,” the post read.
The remarks come as the volatile situation in Syria continues to pose security challenges to the region. Israel has maintained a steadfast policy of preemptive action to counter threats, particularly from Iranian forces and Hezbollah operatives seeking to establish footholds near its borders.
Netanyahu’s statement underscores the Israeli government’s resolve to uphold national security through proactive measures. Over the years, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have carried out targeted operations in Syria, aiming to disrupt the transfer of advanced weapons and prevent the establishment of hostile military infrastructure.
The Prime Minister’s comments also reflect a broader strategic objective to maintain stability and deter adversaries. Observers view the statement as a clear message to regional actors that Israel remains committed to protecting its sovereignty and ensuring the safety of its citizens.
