“Don’t mess with us, not now and not ever,” Netanyahu said, adding that Israel’s “long arm” would reach its adversaries wherever necessary.

Netanyahu said Israel was continuing military operations “without pause on all fronts”, referring to its recent operations in Gaza and Lebanon.

He also claimed that more than 100 people he described as “terrorists” had been killed in Gaza in recent weeks. The figure and characterisation were presented by Netanyahu and were not independently detailed in the statement.

The Israeli prime minister further said his government was facing “heavy pressure” to withdraw from positions and relinquish military gains. He said he would not agree to such a move.

The warnings come as Israel prepares for its parliamentary election, scheduled for October 27. Netanyahu’s remarks indicate that security concerns are likely to remain a significant issue as the country moves toward the vote.

Israel continues to face security tensions across several fronts, while diplomatic efforts and international pressure surrounding the conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon remain ongoing.
