AhlulBayt News Agency: Iran's powerful military response to Israel's crimes left US officials stunned.
US officials, faced with Iran's powerful military response to Israel's crimes, only criticized Iran and threatened to impose more sanctions. According to Pars Today, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken called Iran's missile response to Israel's attacks "unacceptable" and asked the world to condemn the action.
The US Department of Defense, the Pentagon, also condemned Iran's actions in a statement, saying: "If Iran attacks US interests, we will defend our citizens. We condemn these reckless attacks and call on Iran to stop any future attacks, including through its forces."
The US State Department spokesman also criticized Iran for not informing the US about the attack on the Occupied Territories.
Mark Miller, a spokesman for the US State Department, said at a press conference that Iran had not informed the US about the attack on Israel before it happened.
Meanwhile, the White House announced that following Iran's missile attack on Israel, US President Joe Biden and his deputy, Kamala Harris, were monitoring the situation and that the US president had ordered assistance to Israel.
Karina Jean-Pierre, the White House press secretary, also announced at her weekly press conference that the US would impose new sanctions on Iran due to the attack on the Occupied Territories.
Referring to Iran's missile operation, she said: "Our extensive sanctions against Tehran remain in place, and we will undoubtedly continue to enforce them."
The Islamic Republic of Iran, after a period of restraint in the face of violations of its sovereignty and the assassination of martyrs Ismail Haniyeh, Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, and Brigadier General Seyyed Abbas Nilforoushan, as well as the massacre of innocent women and children in Palestine and Lebanon by the Zionist regime, in accordance with the right of countries to defend themselves under the UN Charter, targeted the Occupied Territories with at least 200 ballistic missiles on Tuesday night.
