The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) of Israel on Thursday issued a statement regarding the reports that US President Donald Trump scuttled an Israeli plan for a joint American-Israeli military attack on Iranian nuclear facilities. “For over a decade, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has led the global campaign against Iran’s nuclear program, even when the threat was belittled and labelled ‘political spin,’ and the Prime Minister was called ‘paranoid,'” the PMO wrote on X.

The PMO stated, “The Prime Minister has led countless overt and covert operations in the campaign against Iran’s nuclear program; it is only due to these operations that Iran does not currently possess a nuclear arsenal.” The series of posts made through the official account of the Israeli Prime Minister further added, “These actions have delayed Iran’s nuclear program by approximately a decade, thanks to Prime Minister Netanyahu’s persistence in withstanding great opposition both at home and abroad to his vigorous policy toward Iran.”
IDF To Pre-Warn Public Of Yemen Missile Attacks
On the other hand, in a major announcement, starting today, April 17, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) will provide the public with advance notice of missile fire from Yemen towards the territory of the State of Israel, before activating the air raid siren. The warning will be sent out through the IDF’s Home Front Command app in areas under threat, via an update with sound (without an alarm going up and down).
The change is intended to “enable preparation, advance preparedness for citizens to ensure better protection in their vicinity, and receipt of the notification from official sources,” said the IDF
