‘Must deal with threats’: Israel’s four red lines that warrant an attack if crossed

He said: “The war between wars is something that we started almost 10 or 11 years ago. We started mostly under the radar mostly to try and work against Iran’s nuclear programme. 

“We started with cyber attacks in the centrifuges and other things. Now it is large and escaping and it has spilt over. Now it is mostly against Iranians or Syrians or Hezbollah forces in Syria. 

“According to the foreign press, there are three red lines for Israel, and if one of these three lines is breached, Isreal is doing what it should do. The first one is, we cannot allow terror activities by terror organisations on our borders.

“The second is that we cannot allow the transfer of game-changing systems from Iran via Syria to Israel. The third – we cannot allow the Iranian forces to stabilise in Syria. If one of these three happens, according to foreign sources, we will attack.”

But while there are three widely agreed upon “red lines” which Israel is ready to respond to if crossed, Mr Nagel suggested that there should be a fourth added into the mix.
