US President Joe Biden said the US will not support an Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear sites in retaliation for this week’s major attack. Over the course of an hour on Tuesday, Iran launched 181 ballistic missiles at Israel, which is believed to be the largest ballistic missile attack in history.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu threatened retaliation and said Iran “made a big mistake” by firing those missiles and “will pay” for their actions. At the same time, Iran’s US Ambassador warned Israel that its response to any acts of aggression against Tehran “will be swift, decisive and stronger than before.”
President Biden said he does not expect Israel to retaliate immediately and rejected the suggestion that the US would grant permission for such an attack.
