US President Joe Biden says he would not support any Israel i strike on Iran’s nuclear sites in response to its missile attack, and has urged Israel to act “proportionally”. Biden spoke a day after Iran fired more than 180 ballistic missiles at Israel in a move that he previously described as “ineffective”, as the Middle East edges nearer to a regionwide war.
US Deputy Secretary Kurt Campbell said the administration was seeking to align its position with Israel on any response to Iran’s attack but also recognises the Middle East is on a “knife’s edge” and a broader escalation could imperil both Israeli and US interests. Speaking at a virtual event hosted by think tank Carnegie Endowment, Campbell repeated the US view that what Iran has undertaken was “deeply irresponsible” and there must be a “return message”.
