BEIT SHEMESH, Israel — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the site of a deadly missile strike in Beit Shemesh on Monday, where nine people, including three siblings, were killed.

Offering condolences to the families and wishing a speedy recovery to the injured, Netanyahu said the government would help rebuild damaged homes.

Addressing Iran, Netanyahu said the Israeli campaign targets what he described as an existential threat. “The regime in Iran calls for the death of Israel and America. They threaten all the peoples of the region,” he said. “If this tyrannical regime gets nuclear weapons, they will threaten all of humanity.”

He added that the operation is intended to give the Iranian people a chance to free themselves from the regime’s oppression. “The day they will be able to do so is approaching, and we are bringing it closer,” he said.
