# Prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu has warned that Israel will strike powerfully against Iran if it attacks his country. His remarks come after a military confrontation last month, when Israel struck petrochemical facilities in southwestern Tehran in retaliation for a large Iranian missile barrage. Meanwhile, in recent days, there has been a major escalation in strikes between the US and Iran. Netanyahu says they are prepared for every possible scenario. He added that the era in which Israel could be attacked without those responsible paying a heavy price was over.
