 In our South Africa now, the Israeli military has carried out a series of airstrikes on his border target in Lebanon. The development came miles after Iran launched its barrage of missiles and drones against Israel. Now, it is yet to strike Iran directly following the attack. However, and the country's ultimate plans for a response remain unclear. The President Joe Biden has reported the advice in Israel not to retaliate, given that its air defenses short down roughly 99 percent of Iran's 300 missiles and drones during Saturday's attack. The Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, however, says Israel is prepared for any possible scenario. Citizens of Israel, in recent years, and especially in recent weeks, Israel has been preparing for a direct attack by Iran. Our defensive systems are deployed. We are ready for any scenario, both defensively and offensively. The state of Israel is strong. The IDF, Israel Defense Forces, is strong. The public is strong. We appreciate the U.S. standing alongside Israel, as well as the support of Britain, France and many other countries. We have determined a clear principle, whoever harms us, we will harm them. We will defend ourselves against any threat and will do so level-headedly and with determination. Citizens of Israel, I know that you also are also level-headed. I call on you to follow the directors of IDF Home Front Command.
