suspecting iran might be behind that incident as well. israel s defence minister has publicly named the iranian official he says ordered the attack. you interviewed benny gantz recently what did he say? the defence minister had a very strong word for it to run, obviously. they are extremely worried about iran activities in the region and he believed iran is encrypting the proxies in the region as well as hezbollah. he thought that it as well as hezbollah. he thought thatitis as well as hezbollah. he thought that it is really posing a threat to israel and he said he asked the parliament to increase the budget for updating a plan for a possible plan if need be to attack iran nuclear facilities.
plan if need be to attack iran nuclearfacilities. he said plan if need be to attack iran nuclear facilities. he said that these countries are ready to confront iran, he is not afraid of that, but obviously today many gangs and the israeli foreign minister had and the israeli foreign minister had a meeting with the ambassador to those countries who are a member of the united nations security council. they were trying to persuade them to have a meeting, impose some sort of sanction and iran and israeli say the action must be contained in the region. was out saudi arabia have accused iran of destabilising the region. also saudi arabia. the iranian officials in the past few days denied any involvement, but some experts say the incident happening just a few days ago, particular on a drone attack which benny gantz named the commander of the revolutionary guards unit as a person who ordered the attack on the israeli ship, many say it might be a message from tehran that with a new
