Israeli opposition leader says emerging Iran deal marks Netanyahu failure

Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid says the emerging agreement with Iran fails to deliver on any of Israel’s stated war objectives.

In a post on X, Lapid said the deal would leave Tehran’s leadership and military capabilities intact.

“The regime survives, the missile program remains in place, and Iran can rebuild its nuclear program,” he wrote.

Lapid blamed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the outcome, saying the agreement exposed Israel’s dependence on Washington.

“This is a complete failure by Netanyahu, and it turns us into a client state that receives instructions regarding its national security,” he added.
