President Herzog Visits Site of Impact of Iranian Attack in Tel Aviv

President Herzog: “The people of Israel and the people of Iran can live in peace. The region can live in peace, but what undermines peace all the time is terror instigated by this Iranian evil regime. That’s why we are here.”

On March 1, 2026, President Isaac Herzog visited the impact site of an Iranian attack in Tel Aviv.

President Herzog’s statement to media at the site:

“We’re here with a message for the people of Israel and the entire region: stay strong.

“This is a historic effort to change the trajectory in the Middle East to a different future—a future of peace.

“We’ve been confronted by an empire of evil for a generation. Ali Khamenei spent a whole generation taking his people’s resources and directing them towards terror, bloodshed, pain and horror. And what we are doing here, together, all the allies, the United States, leading this effort, is to change world situation towards a vision of peace in the region.

“The people of Israel and the people of Iran can live in peace. The region can live in peace, but what undermines peace all the time is terror instigated by this evil Iranian regime. That’s why we are here.

“The people of Israel are strong. The Israeli army is strong. The American army is strong, and of course, our allies are strong, and let nobody fool himself: we shall overcome and hopefully bring a new era to the Middle East and Iran. Thank you.”
