Netanyahu at Arad: Europe must join Iran fight — Iran's ICBM can reach deep into Europe

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the site of Iran's missile strike on Arad on Day 23 and delivered a direct appeal to European leaders to join the joint US-Israeli military campaign against Iran. KEY STATEMENTS: - 'They fired an intercontinental ballistic missile on Diego Garcia... They have now the capacity to reach deep into Europe' - 'They are putting everyone in their sights. [They're] stopping a maritime international route, energy route, and trying to blackmail the entire world' - 'It's time to see the leaders of the rest of the countries join up' - 'Some countries are beginning to move toward joining the campaign' (unnamed) - Condemned Iran attacks near Jerusalem: 'They fired on Jerusalem, right next to the holy sites of the three monotheistic faiths: the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. By dint of a miracle, none of them were hurt, but they were targeting the holy sites' - On Israeli response: 'We’re going after the regime. We’re going after the IRGC, this criminal gang, and we’re going after them personally, their leaders, their installations, their economic assets. We’re going after them very strongly' SIGNIFICANCE: Netanyahu's explicit citation of Diego Garcia as an ICBM range demonstration — and the assertion that Iran can now reach Europe — is a direct appeal to European NATO members. Combined with Trump's repeated complaints about lack of international support, this signals a coordinated US-Israel diplomatic push to expand the coalition. The reference to countries 'beginning to move' without naming them suggests active diplomatic engagement not yet public.
