Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has warned that Israel was “not done yet” with its offensive against Iran, saying the attacks have severely weakened the capabilities of the Iranian government.

Speaking during a meeting with Israel’s health system leaders, Netanyahu reiterated his call for the Iranian people to topple their leadership.

He said Israel hoped the Iranian people would ultimately “cast off the yoke of tyranny,” but added that such a change would depend on them.

Meanwhile, Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi on Tuesday said that talks with the United States were no longer on Tehran’s agenda.

Araghchi said Iran was prepared to continue its missile operations for as long as necessary, signalling a firm stance against immediate negotiations with Washington following U.S. President Donald Trump’s claim that the conflict with Iran would end “very soon”.

Israel and the United States launched a joint attack on Iran on February 28, triggering a deadly regional conflict that has spread across the Middle East.
