Speaking outside Soroka Hospital in Beersheba, which was recently hit by an Iranian missile, Netanyahu said the decision was difficult for his family, but necessary given the circumstances.
He explained that his son’s wedding, originally scheduled for November, had already been delayed once due to security concerns.
According to him, the wedding was rescheduled for this week, but had to be called off again as tensions escalated.
Stressing that his family is not exempt from the toll of the conflict, Benjamin Netanyahu said, “We all bear a personal price. It didn’t pass by my family.
“This is the second time my son Avner’s wedding is delayed because of missiles. It’s a huge personal price for him, his fiancée, and our family.”
He went on to say that Israel’s current struggle reminded him of Britain’s resilience during the World War II Blitz, suggesting the country is going through a similarly challenging period.
Netanyahu also praised his wife, Sara, for staying strong through the ordeal, calling her a “hero” for supporting their son and the family despite the emotional strain.
The recent conflict started after Israel carried out a large-scale military operation in Iran, targeting nearly 100 locations, including nuclear facilities and key military bases.
