Speaking in Persian in a social media video on Sunday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu renewed his call for Iranians to rise up against their government, this time using an AI-generated version of his voice speaking Farsi.

“In the coming days, we will strike thousands of targets belonging to the terror regime,” Netanyahu said. “We will create conditions for the brave people of Iran to free themselves from the chains of tyranny.”

The video followed his first address on Saturday at the outset of the war, when he urged Iranians to rebel against the regime.

Echoing remarks made a day earlier by US President Donald Trump, Netanyahu added: “That is why I say to you again: citizens of Iran, do not miss this opportunity. This is an opportunity that comes only once in a generation.”

“Do not give up, because your moment will come soon,” he said.

“The moment when you must take to the streets — take to the streets in your millions to finish the job, to topple the terror regime that has made your lives unbearable. Your suffering and sacrifice will not be in vain. The help you have been waiting for has arrived. The help has arrived, and now is the time to unite for a historic mission.”

Addressing multiple ethnic communities, Netanyahu concluded: “Oh citizens of Iran — Persians, Kurds, Azeris, Ahvazis and Baloch — now is the time to unite your forces to overthrow the regime and secure your future.”
