By Nava Freiberg, 3:37 pm. Tuesday, March 17, 2026 Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gives a video statement from his office on March 17, 2026. (Omer Miron/GPO) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that Israel’s elimination of Iranian official Ali Larijani is part of its goal to “destabilize” the Iranian regime in its ongoing aerial assault with the United States, in an effort to give the Iranian people “the opportunity to remove” the regime from power. Israel’s assassination of Larijani, as well as of Basij paramilitary force commander Gholamreza Soleimani, reflects its “destabilizing this regime in the hope of giving the Iranian people an opportunity to remove it,” Netanyahu says in a video message released by his office. “This will not happen all at once; it will not happen easily. But if we persist, we will give them the opportunity to take their fate into their own hands,” the premier continues. He adds that “at the same time, we are assisting our American allies in the Gulf” amid Iran’s attacks on the region, saying he “spoke at length” about the issue yesterday with US President Donald Trump. “There is cooperation between our air forces and navies, between me and President Trump and his team. We will assist both through indirect attacks, which generate tremendous pressure on the Iranian regime, and through direct operations. There are many more surprises,” Netanyahu says.

shelter essentials realnes. It’s a strange reality, but try, If you could only grab a few physical things with your bare hands, what would they be? ​While the American image of a bunker is built for Armageddon, our reality is different—we’re often looking at a 30-minute before the rescue arrives, But everything is Ruins. I’ve seen people grab everything from family photos and jewelry to their iRobot. ​Stop for a second and look around your room. What’s truly worth saving? ​We run to the shelter 10 times a day, closing that heavy door, knowing it could be the last time we see our home and its fine.
