Any new Iran leader will be a target, Israel’s defense minister says


Any leader appointed by Iran’s ruling system to continue plans to destroy Israel, threaten the world, and suppress the Iranian people would be a clear target, Israel Defense Minister Israel Katz said on Wednesday.
“We will continue to act with full force, together with our American partners, to crush the regime’s capabilities and create the conditions for the Iranian people to overthrow it and replace it,” Katz said in a post on X.
Israel would keep acting with full force together with its US partners to degrade the Iranian leadership’s capabilities and create conditions for the Iranian people to overthrow and replace it, the Israeli defense minister added.
