Israel: "The Iranians Intended to Attack an Israeli Target"
(Israel Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Naftali Bennett told the Cabinet on Sunday: "The world recently received a reminder of Iranian aggression, this time on the high seas. The Iranians, who attacked the ship Mercer Street with unmanned aerial vehicles, intended to attack an Israeli target." "Iran, in a cowardly manner, is trying to evade responsibility for the event. They are denying this. Then, I determine, with absolute certainty - Iran carried out the attack against the ship....The intelligence evidence for this exists and we expect the international community will make it clear to the Iranian regime that they have made a serious mistake. In any case, we know how to send a message to Iran in our own way."
