US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said recent Israeli attacks on Iran’s military infrastructure were a justified response to the October 1 attack and should not lead to a further escalation of the conflict.
“The Times Of Israel” writes about this.
“Israel had the right to respond to this attack on October 1. We support your right to do so. They responded on Friday night. “We believe this issue should be put to rest,” Miller said during a news conference.
According to Miller, the United States supported Israel’s right to self-defense, considering the retaliation proportionate. At the same time, he stressed that Washington is willing to continue defending Israel if Iran decides to retaliate.
Miller also noted that Israel took into account the recommendations of US President Joe Biden and avoided attacks on Iran’s nuclear and oil facilities, limiting its operation to exclusively military purposes, which corresponded to Tehran’s threat level.
Earlier, Kursor reported that Israel was preparing another attack on Iran.
Israel is preparing for a new attack against Iran. According to sources, Israeli retaliation is expected in the coming days in relation to the recent incidents, including the launch of a drone in the direction of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in Caesarea.
Yesterday afternoon, the Israeli cabinet held a several-hour meeting dedicated to possible actions in response to the provocations.
Ministers were told that the next attack on Iran would not be a response to the UAV launch, but would be part of a broader strategy aimed at protecting national security and responding to emerging threats.
Various strategies have been discussed with security and law enforcement agencies, and a final decision on Israel’s action is expected soon.
