Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in his speech at the United Nations General Assembly, said that preventing the Islamic Republic from obtaining nuclear weapons, including by attacking Iran's nuclear facilities, was one of the most important and at the same time easiest decisions of his term as prime minister. Netanyahu also claimed that a number of leaders of countries that publicly criticize Israel have appreciated the attack on Iran's nuclear facilities in private conversations, and said that by doing so, Israel has not only defended itself, but also protected other countries.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the United Nations General Assembly that Israel did not collapse after the October 7 attack, in which he said 1,200 Israelis were killed, and fought on “seven fronts” for three years. He listed Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, the Islamic Republic, Iraqi and Syrian militias, and Palestinian armed groups in the West Bank as these fronts, saying they united to “destroy” Israel, but were defeated. “We will prevail,” Netanyahu said. We have no other choice.” Netanyahu also said that the threat of missiles and rockets targeting Israeli civilians had been eliminated and Hezbollah leaders had been killed. He named Ali Khamenei, Mohammad Deif, Yahya Sinwar, Ismail Haniyeh and Hassan Nasrallah, saying: “They were all eliminated, along with thousands of other terrorists.”

"I stood at this podium and drew a red line," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in his speech to the United Nations General Assembly on Thursday, October 2. "I swore to prevent the murderous dictatorship of Iran from obtaining an atomic bomb; nuclear weapons aimed at the destruction of Israel and capable of threatening the entire world. And that is exactly what we did." He added, "It was difficult, very difficult, to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities. But for me, it was one of the easiest decisions I have made as prime minister." Netanyahu also said, "Even in secret, they thank us for destroying Iran's nuclear weapons. It is difficult to imagine a more astonishing hypocrisy, but that is exactly what it is."

Live: Minites before Prime Minister Netanyahu is expected to give a UN address, at which he vowed to castigate Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Mamdani released a wordless video that showed him planting an olive tree at Grace Mansion and eating dinner with Palestinian families from Gaza. “May peace be our future,” he said in a caption on X.

New details ahead of the Prime Minister's speech at the UN General Assembly that we published in the edition | The Prime Minister will deliver his speech here at the UN General Assembly building in a little over an hour, and he arrives on this stage after several difficult days for Israel in this arena, which has always been complex and hostile to Israel. This year it seems to have crossed another threshold. Netanyahu will speak in an unprecedentedly hostile atmosphere, with the assessment being that there will be provocations in the hall. The Israeli delegation is preparing for the ambassadors of many countries who are expected to protest and wave signs against Israel. Netanyahu will focus the speech, of course, on Iran, but he will also respond to attacks against Israel, as well as that of New York Mayor Mamadani. Netanyahu will also mention in his speech the injury of the son of the Israeli ambassador to the US, to emphasize that Israel is fighting terror in both Gaza and Judea and Samaria. It is likely that we will also see a reference to the words of French President Macron, who ignorantly claimed that Hamas does not operate in the West Bank. Regarding the meetings that the prime minister will hold here, these were organized for him at short notice by the ambassador to the UN and by his office, but these are not the meetings that he would have wanted. He is not meeting any of the senior Trump administration officials. In terms of European leaders, he is only meeting two heads of state, Greece and Slovenia. One more thing, there is a lot of talk here about the issue of Netanyahu's security. It is true that he landed here at a remote military airport and there are threats and concerns, but security sources emphasize: "If the Prime Minister's Office had decided that Netanyahu would stay overnight in New York due to a political schedule, there would have been an appropriate and meticulous security response."
