Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the country will help make Iran’s “terror regime” disappear, as talks to reach a peace agreement between the US and the Islamic republic appear to stutter, AFP reports.

“This terror regime, which is destined to disappear from the world, and we will help bring about this outcome, this regime will no longer threaten us with nuclear bombs and thousands of lethal ballistic missiles,” Netanyahu says at an event marking the appointment of Major General Roman Gofman as the head of Israel’s Mossad spy agency.
