Legislator from Netanyahu’s Likud party opposes Iran truce

Dan Illouz, a member of Netanyahu’s Likud Party, has said that the only deal the government must sign is Iran’s “surrender agreement”, Al Jazeera reports.

In a statement posted on X, Illouz said the “regime in Iran is not a regime with which agreements are made — but a regime that must be defeated”.

Illouz said that “if not defeated”, Iran will find new means against Israel.

“This is a struggle against an ideology whose goal is the destruction of Israel,” he said.

Illouz stressed that Israel has been given “a once-in-a-generation opportunity to eliminate this evil.”

“We must not stop — until it is decisively defeated,” he added.
