A spokesman for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met US President Donald Trump two months before the recent 12-day conflict, adding that they discussed plans to topple Iran’s Islamic Republic within three days.
Brigadier General Ali-Mohammad Naeini, speaking at a university event in Mashhad, said Israel’s Channel 13 had broadcast parts of the alleged meeting, which he described as evidence of foreign efforts to overthrow Iran’s government.
He added that attempts to destabilize the Islamic Republic date back to its founding, citing US support for Iraq during the 1980–88 war and what he called Western plots to divide Iran.
Naeini said the 12-day war demonstrated Iran’s resilience against “arrogant powers” seeking regime change.
