Netanyahu Says Israel Working to Overthrow Iran's Government

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told i24 News that "all of our systems, under my direction, are working to bring down" and "defeat" Iran's regime, an explicit statement of regime-change intent rather than a limited military or nuclear-containment objective. This marks a significant escalation in declared aims between the two states, raising the prospect of wider regional conflict or direct confrontation involving Iran's allies. Such open pursuit of regime change against a major regional power signals movement toward a broader confrontation rather than isolated strikes.
