Defense Minister Israel Katz on Saturday threatened further action against Iran should more missiles be fired towards Israeli civilians. 

"If Khamenei continues to fire missiles at Israeli civilians, Tehran will burn," Katz said in a threatening message towards to Iranian Supreme Leader. 

The defense minister made these statements after finishing a situational assessment with the IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, Mossad Director David Barnea, and other Israeli military leadership.

"The Iranian dictator is turning the citizens of Iran into hostages and bringing about the reality that they, and in particular the residents of Tehran, will pay a heavy price for the criminal harm to the citizens of Israel," the defense minister added.

Katz then praised the IDF and security forces for the impressive operations and achievements against the Islamic Republic since Thursday.

Katz made these statements after another two Iranian deputy commanders at the Iranian armed forces' general staff were killed in Israeli strikes.

Furthermore, Iran's Fordow nuclear facility sustained limited damage following recent attacks by Israeli forces. Israel had also killed nine Iranian scientists who were advancing the Islamic Republic's agenda in developing a nuclear weapon, the IDF said.
