Netanyahu To Iranians: ‘Celebrate, We’re Watching From Above’

Mar 17, 2026·2 min read

Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu delivered a message to the people of Iran on Tuesday from the Israeli Air Force command center at the Kirya, expressing support and encouragement as they mark the festival of Nowruz.

Speaking alongside senior Israeli defense officials, Netanyahu described recent military actions against top Iranian figures and emphasized Israel’s continued operations. “I’m here with Israel’s Defense Minister, our Chief of Staff, the head of the Mossad, the Chief of Air Force, our senior commanders. In the past 24 hours, we knocked out two of the terrorist chieftains, the top terrorist chieftains of this tyranny,” Netanyahu stated in reference to the assassination of Ali Larijani and the commander of the Basij.

He said Israeli forces are actively targeting operatives across various locations in Iran, framing the strikes as part of a broader effort connected to the holiday. “Our aircraft are hitting the terror operatives on the grounds, in the crossroads, in the city squares. This is meant to enable the brave people of Iran to celebrate the Festival of Fire,” he said.

Netanyahu concluded his remarks with a message directed to the Iranian public. “So celebrate and Happy Nowruz. We’re watching from above”, the prime minister concluded.
