Netanyahu Vows to Block Palestinian State Controlled by Iran

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed not to allow the emergence of a Palestinian state that he says would be controlled by Iran.

Netanyahu made the declaration in a post on X, saying such a state would not be established in Gaza or what he referred to as Judea and Samaria.

“As long as I am Prime Minister, no Palestinian state controlled by Iran will arise, not in Gaza, not in Judea and Samaria. Period,” he wrote.

The Israeli leader also claimed that what he described as a coalition involving the Muslim Brotherhood had been exposed.

“The price of a left-wing coalition with the Muslim Brotherhood has been exposed once again,” Netanyahu said.

He further criticised political figures he identified as Eizenkot, Lieberman and Tropper, accusing them of boycotting Likud voters while supporting Arab political figures and parties.

“These are the partners of Eizenkot, Lieberman and Tropper, who boycott Likud voters but warmly promote the supporters of Tibi and Balad,” he added.
