Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz said in an interview with Israel's Channel 14 television that if Iran attacks Israel, it will receive a devastating blow, and that Iran knows this very well.
Katz argued that Israeli local media ignore "military successes" and said the government would continue to share achieved results with the public.
If Iran attacks Israel, it will receive a devastating blow.
Among such successes, Katz cited the killing of Iran's Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other senior Iranian officials, although this claim has not been independently confirmed.
The interview came as Israeli security officials reacted to US President Donald Trump's decision to cancel a planned comprehensive military operation against Iran, according to the report.
Israeli press raised the possibility that the US would carry out a large-scale attack on Iran, and Israel raised its defense alert level to the highest level.
On July 31, Trump asserted that the US would deliver very hard blows to Iran until Iran can no longer bear it, and claimed that the ongoing process was going "quite well" for the US.
