John Kirby, the spokesperson for the US National Security Council, stated that we take Iran’s threats seriously.
The White House says that Iran’s threats of retaliation against Israel following our recent attack in Syria are real and actionable.
Kirby added that we are assessing the situation of our forces in the region to ensure they are capable of defending themselves.
We are aware of Iran’s threats and the possibility of an attack on Israel, and we will ensure Israel’s ability to defend itself.
