President Joe Biden has condemned Iran’s unprecedented air attack on Israel and convened a meeting of the G-7 leaders on Sunday to develop a coordinated response to the brazen assault.
His comments came as American forces joined efforts to down drones and missiles launched by Tehran.
Israel said it and its allies have intercepted the vast majority of more than 200 drones and missiles launched by Iran.
“Earlier today, Iran—and its proxies operating out of Yemen, Syria and Iraq—launched an unprecedented air attack against military facilities in Israel. I condemn these attacks in the strongest possible terms,” Biden said after his call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
