Biden Condemns Iran's Attack, Vows Full Support for Israel

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has called Iran's attacks on Israel a "serious escalation" that can have "devastating region-wide" consequences.

“I have repeatedly stressed that neither the region nor the world can afford another war,” Guterres said in a statement.

Israeli military spokesperson Daniel Hagari has confirmed that "a small number of Iranian missiles" have hit Israel, causing "minor damage" to a military base but no casualties.

Hagari said the "vast majority" of drones and missiles headed for Israel have been downed, either by Israelis or "partners".

Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau has issued a statement in support of Israel, condemning Iran's attacks “unequivocally".

"The Iranian regime’s latest actions will further destabilize the region and make lasting peace more difficult,” Trudeau said.

German foreign minister Annalena Baerbock also condemned Iran'a attacks “in the strongest possible terms."

“Iran and its proxies must stop it immediately,” Baerbock wrote in a post on X.

Footage and photos released by Israeli media show Iranian launches being intercepted over the Temple Mount and Knesset building in Jerusalem.

"Next time the Iranian regime purports to speak for Muslims around the world- remind them of the night they put the Muslim, Christian and Jewish holy sites in Jerusalem in jeopardy. And then remind them who protected these sites," Israeli Foreign Ministry official Tammy Rahamimoff-Honig said in reaction to the video.
