White House: Biden keeps supporting Israel's right to defend itself
BBC — US President Joe Biden is directing officials to maintain close communication with Israel, and will “keep supporting Israel’s right to defend itself”, according to a national security spokesman.
The Pentagon also says the US is “postured to support” a defence of Israel.
Hezbollah says it has fired more than 320 rockets towards Israel this morning.
In a statement, the Iranian-backed Lebanese group says it targeted 11 military sites in northern Israel with hundreds of Katyusha rockets.
It said the “first phase” of its attack against Israel is complete.
