Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, visiting Israeli troops on Mount Hermon in southern Syria, declared Iran 'very close' to collapse and vowed Israel would not allow a 'terror army' on its border. The IAEA Board of Governors voted to report Iran to the UN Security Council for the first time in 20 years over nuclear non-proliferation breaches.
