Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s prime minister, said in a video that his country’s forces were “progressing step by step” towards eliminating threats posed by Iran’s nuclear sites and ballistic missile arsenal, writes BBC.

“We control the skies over Tehran. We are striking with tremendous force at the regime of the ayatollahs. We are hitting the nuclear sites, the missiles, the headquarters, the symbols of the regime”, he said.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday, June 18, rejected US President Donald Trump’s demand for unconditional surrender, as the US president said his patience had run out.
