"Biden Assures Netanyahu: US Will Not Back Israeli Counterattack on Iran"
President Biden and his national security team informed Israeli counterparts that the US will not participate in any offensive action against Iran following Iranian missile and drone attacks on Israel. Biden emphasized Israel's successful interception as a victory and urged restraint, while also planning a meeting with G7 leaders to discuss a diplomatic response. Despite American influence, the decision on how to respond to Iran remains with Israel, and there are concerns about potential escalation and pressure for a response within Israel. Iran's warning of direct retaliation adds to the ongoing tensions.
