Israeli PM calls Iran a persistent threat even if weakened

Tel Aviv, Nov 12 (UNI) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during an address to the Knesset, said that Iran remains a persistent threat to Israel despite suffering crippling damage, and devastating losses during the 12-day war in June.
Urging government and opposition lawmakers alike to maintain constant vigilance against Tehran, he warned that even though greatly weakened, Tehran remains dangerous and should not be underestimated.
"We crushed Iran's axis of evil. We distanced and neutralised the dual threat from Iran — the nuclear threat and the ballistic threat alike," Netanyahu said in his address to parliament, as opposition members criticised his government's handling of post-war diplomacy, reports Channel 12.
