The United States is closely monitoring the development of the situation and will continue to consult closely with Israel on the next steps to protect it.

Iran’s latest attack on Israel is twice as large as the one Iran carried out in April. US Navy destroyers fired about a dozen interceptors at Iranian missiles. Pentagon Speaker Major General Pat Ryder announced this on Tuesday, October 1, CNN and Sky News reported.

“That’s about double the number of ballistic missiles they launched last time,” he said, adding that “you can’t fire a lot of missiles at a target without intending to hit something.”

“So, of course, just like last time, their intent is destruction,” said Ryder.

According to him, there are three US guided missile destroyers in the eastern Mediterranean: USS Arleigh Burke, USS Cole and USS Bulkeley. Ryder indicated that the destroyers USS Bulkeley and USS Cole took part in the operation.

He also said that US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin spoke for a second time with Israeli Defense Minister Yoava Gallant on Tuesday.

“The Secretary of Defense reaffirmed the firm commitment of the United States to the defense of Israel and emphasized that the United States remains firmly positioned throughout the Middle East region to protect American and Israeli forces from threats from to Iran and terrorist organizations supported by Iran,” he said. . ride.

We remind you that on the night of October 1, Iran launched hundreds of missiles at Israel. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the attack was in response to the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and that if Israel responded it would “receive a heavy blow.”
