US President Joe Biden is set to convene with G7 leaders on Sunday to discuss and coordinate a united diplomatic response to Iran's recent attack, as stated in a release from the White House. The President's team will be engaging with counterparts in the region and maintaining close communication with Israel's leadership.
While there have been no reported attacks on US forces or facilities as of now, President Biden emphasized the importance of remaining vigilant against all threats and being prepared to take necessary actions to ensure the safety of the American people.
Defensive assets from the US were deployed to the region earlier in the week and played a crucial role in assisting Israel in intercepting and neutralizing the majority of the incoming drones and missiles, according to the official statement.
Following the attack on Saturday, President Biden had a conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to reiterate the unwavering commitment of the United States to Israel's security. The President commended Israel for its effective defense capabilities, sending a strong message to its adversaries that attempts to undermine Israel's security will not succeed.
