U.S. and Canadian leaders reacted after Iran launched a barrage of ballistic missiles against Israel on Tuesday, the latest escalation between the two countries amid a widening conflict in the Middle East. “Today Iran launched nearly 200 ballistic missiles towards targets in Israel. The United States military co-ordinated closely with the Israeli defence forces to help defend Israel against this attack. U.S. naval destroyers joined Israeli air defence units in firing interceptors to shoot down inbound missiles,” U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan said. U.S. President Joe Biden told reporters “Based on what we know now, the attack appears to have been defeated and ineffective. And this is testament to the Israeli military capability and the U.S. military.” He added “Make no mistake, the United States is fully, fully, fully supportive of Israel.” Canada’s Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly said Canada condemns the attacks “unequivocally.” She warned Canadians who may still be in Lebanon if they are offered a seat on flight out of Lebanon to “take it” as it’s “time to leave.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca/news/10788964/canada-lebanon-departures-seats/ Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Like Global News on Facebook HERE: http://bit.ly/255GMJQ Follow Global News on X HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on Instagram HERE: https://bit.ly/2QZaZIB #GlobalNews #israelhezbollah
