Israel Iran War LIVE: Pentagon Briefing On Israel Iran War LIVE | Iran Attacks Israel | N18G

The US military helped Israel to intercept a barrage of Iranian ballistic missiles on Tuesday, while Washington reaffirmed support for its ally as fears grew of a wider regional war.

The Pentagon said Iran had fired about 200 ballistic missiles at Israel, about double the number it launched during a similar attack on April 13.

President Joe Biden “directed the US military to aid Israel’s defence against Iranian attacks and shoot down missiles that are targeting Israel", the White House said.

"Make no mistake, the United States is fully, fully, fully supportive of Israel," Mr Biden told reporters. He said that a response to Iran "remains to be seen".

Pentagon Press Secretary Maj Gen Pat Ryder said Israel had been able to intercept most of the missiles and that there was "minimal damage".
