Defence Minister Israel Katz announced on Monday that the Israel Air Force assassinated the chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' Intelligence Majid Khademi as he threatened to hunt down the Iranian leaders "one by one".
In an address following a situational assessment meeting with Israel Defence Forces (IDF) Chief of Staff Lt Gen Eyal Zamir and senior military officials, Katz said, "The (Iranian) Revolutionary Guards shoot at civilians and we eliminate the heads of
terrorists."
"Iran's leaders live with a sense of persecution.
We will continue to hunt them down one by one," the Israeli minister warned.
Israel will continue to attack Iran's vital infrastructure to weaken its economic backbone and missile manufacturing capabilities, he said.
"We struck hard at the steel infrastructure and the petrochemical industry - and today and every day the continuation will come," Katz said.
