The United States has pledged to protect its forces and interests from Iran.
Vice President Kamala Harris emphasized the US’s steadfast commitment to Israel’s security.
Posting on X, the Vice President wrote: “I unequivocally condemn Iran’s reckless and brazen attack against Israel today.
Israel, with our assistance, was able to defeat the attack. Our cooperation saved many lives.
“My commitment to the security of Israel is unwavering. And we will never hesitate to defend U.S. forces and interests against Iran.”
