3. Israel 'Crushing Iranian Regime', Says Army Chief

Israel's military chief said on Friday that its forces were "crushing the Iranian terrorist regime", a day after announcing that the joint US-Israeli campaign against the Islamic republic had entered a new phase.

"We are crushing the Iranian terrorist regime and will seize every opportunity to deepen our achievements," Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir told soldiers, according to a statement issued by the military.

On Thursday, he had said the military campaign had moved into its "next phase" and warned that "additional surprises" were in store for Tehran.
