Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will deliver a televised statement to the public at 8 PM Monday evening regarding the agreement with Iran, his office announced. The address will not include questions from journalists.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to deliver a televised address to the public at 20:00 (8 PM) Monday evening, with his office confirming the statement will address the agreement being finalized with Iran. The format will be a prepared statement without a press Q&A session, according to the Prime Minister's Office. The address comes after more than 17 hours of official silence from Netanyahu following President Donald Trump's announcement of a pending U.S.-Iran deal, as The Zioneer reported earlier. Netanyahu paused a cabinet meeting earlier Monday to take a call from Trump on the matter. The agreement, which Trump has described as a 'fortress wall' against an Iranian nuclear weapon, has drawn concern in Jerusalem over its terms and implications for Israel's security. The specific content of Netanyahu's statement has not been disclosed beyond the Iran agreement framework.
