According to Katz, Israel is prepared for the possibility of resuming military operations in the near future if the defined objectives are not met. According to a report in DW Persian, the minister emphasized that despite the \"heavy blows\" that Iran has suffered over the past year, there is a need to complete the campaign's goals to ensure the removal of what he defines as an \"existential threat.\"\n\nSimilar messages were also conveyed by other officials in the defense establishment, as according to a report in Vahid Online, IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir also noted that \"the battle is not over\" and that the army is prepared to resume the war if necessary.\n\n### Reactions from Iranian media outlets\n\nThe statements were covered extensively in the Iranian media, presenting a confrontational narrative. Media outlets affiliated with the regime, such as the IRNA News Agency and the Daneshju News Agency (SNN), called Katz's words \"nonsense\" and \"baseless threats.\" These sources claimed that Israel and the U.S. failed to achieve their objectives in the campaign against Iran.\n\nIn addition, the 'Akharin Khabar' Telegram channel sharply criticized the minister's words, arguing that it is an attempt to distract from what they call the \"quagmire\" that the IDF has found itself in on the northern front against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon."}]
