While the war between Israel and Iran continues in the Middle East, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a press conference where he made statements regarding the course of the war and responded to recent allegations.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made headlines with his striking entrance at the press conference he held.
Netanyahu began the press conference, where he evaluated the Iran war, by saying, "I am alive, and all of you are witnesses to this." These words from the Israeli Prime Minister were interpreted as a direct response to the claims that have emerged in recent days.
CLAIMS OF HIS DEATH HAD BECOME A TOPIC
Last week, some content circulating on social media suggested that Netanyahu had passed away and that the images presented to the public were generated by artificial intelligence. While official sources did not confirm these claims, Netanyahu's opening sentence at the press conference was interpreted as a clear message against those rumors.
"THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF A GROUND OPERATION"
In the meeting where he stated that he is alive, Netanyahu made evaluations regarding the ongoing war, saying, "You cannot make a revolution from the air. There must also be a component from the ground. There are many possibilities for the ground, but I will not share them."
"THE REGIME MAY FALL OR MAY NOT FALL"
Addressing developments in Iran, Netanyahu claimed that they have created the necessary conditions for the regime to fall, but stated that this is not certain, saying, "The regime may fall or may not fall."
Netanyahu, who suggested that Iran's attempts to attack Israel continue, stated, "This is painful and continues to be painful. It leads to casualties and injuries."
ATTENTION-GRABBING RESPONSE TO THE TRUMP QUESTION
Addressing the claims that Israel is dragging the U.S. into war, Netanyahu responded to a question regarding U.S. President Donald Trump by saying, "Do you really think someone can tell Trump what to do?"
