Israel is now fighting 2 wars, but the PM says its military has "completely transformed reality".
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, where he visited troops and received a briefing, on July 18.
Mr Netanyahu told troops Israel “will win” as it battles militants in both the Gaza Strip and Lebanon and prepares to strike Iran. The Hamas attacks that day killed 1,200 people and more than 250 were taken hostage, according to Israeli figures. Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said on Oct 6 Israel would decide independently how to respond to Iran even though it was closely coordinating with longtime ally the US.

The Israeli military said it had conducted “precise strikes on Hamas terrorists”.
Iran’s Quds Force commander Esmail Qaani also has not been heard from since Israeli strikes on Beirut late last week, two senior Iranian security officials told Reuters.
