המסר שלי למנהיגי איראן:
— Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו (@netanyahu) July 14, 2026
אל תבנו על כך שיהיה שקט אם תתקפו אותנו. אל תבנו על שידור חוזר, זה יהיה שידור אחר - עוצמתי הרבה יותר. pic.twitter.com/lTqHczGSjG
In a direct message to Iran, Netanyahu said, "My message to Iran's leaders: Don't count on there being silence if you attack us. Don't count on a replay; it will be a different broadcast, one far more powerful."
He did not specify what military or strategic measures Israel might take if another attack were to occur but made it clear that any future aggression would invite a significantly stronger retaliation.
'We Will Strike Back Hard'
Reiterating Israel's security doctrine, Netanyahu said the country would continue responding decisively to attacks by Iran or its regional allies.
"The days when someone attacks us and we don't strike back hard are over."
Referring to what he described as the "axis of evil" led by Iran, the Israeli Prime Minister said Israel would not hesitate to act against any threat to its security.
Warning Follows Recent Israel-Iran Escalation
Netanyahu's remarks come weeks after Israel and Iran exchanged direct strikes during the latest escalation in their long-running conflict.
Although active hostilities have since eased, both sides have continued to exchange warnings, even as international diplomatic efforts seek to prevent a wider regional war.

Netanyahu Claims Hezbollah Has Been Weakened
The Israeli leader also claimed that Hezbollah's military strength has been significantly reduced since the conflict began.
According to Netanyahu, the Iran-backed Lebanese group now possesses only 7% to 8% of the missile arsenal it had before the war. Hezbollah has not responded publicly to the claim.
