Israel's military massed troops on the border with Gaza as airstrikes pummeled the Palestinian enclave in the wake of Saturday's attack by Hamas.
U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin declined to say if the U.S. would take pre-emptive action against Hezbollah militants amid speculation that the U.S. could enter the conflict.
“I will just tell you clearly that the United States will continue to support Israel’s right to defend itself,” Austin told journalists at the Ministry of Defense in Tel Aviv, standing beside Yoav Gallant, the Israeli defense minister. “The message we would send to any country or group thinking to take advantage of this situation and widen the conflict: don’t,” Austin said.
