Netanyahu’s Remarks After The Collapse of Assad

🇮🇱NETANYAHU: “THE COLLAPSE OF ASSAD IS A DIRECT RESULT OF OUR ACTION AGAINST HEZBOLLAH AND IRAN”

“This is a historic day for the Middle East.

This collapse is a direct result of our forceful action against Hezbollah and Iran, Assad's main supporters.

But it also means we have to take action against possible threats.

One of them is the collapse of the separation of forces agreement from 1974 between Israel and Syria. This agreement was held for 50 years. Last night, it collapsed. The Syrian army abandoned its positions.

We gave the Israeli Army the order to take over these positions to ensure that no hostile force embeds itself right next to the border of Israel.”
