Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that Israeli army had attacked such Iranian targets as a hospital and an observation location in Syria.

According to the PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s statement, Israel attempted to prevent the violation of Iran, so they conducted military actions every day. Mr. Netanyahu told this to reporters before he prepared to attend a Mideast conference in Poland.

Recently, Israel have held hundreds of actions to attack Syria and attempted to increase the actions after the United States withdrew troops from Israel. PM Benjamin Netanyahu had the cabinet meeting before he flew to Poland. He mentioned that the primary agenda is to prevent Iran from invading Syria and essentially to prevent Iran from having the access to obtain nuclear weapon.

PM Benjamin Netanyahu is the only head of government to participate in this conference.
