US calls Iran attack "spectacular" failure as Israel vows to respond

The Israeli military chief, Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, has stated that Israel is considering its response to Iran's missile and drone attack over the weekend. The attack marked the first direct military assault on Israel from Iran since 1979. Israeli military spokesman has stated that Iran launched over 300 drones and missiles towards Israel, but it remains unclear what form Israel's response will take. Some experts warn that this could lead to a full-scale regional war. Additionally, there are concerns that the escalating conflict in the Middle East may accelerate Iran's nuclear weapons program. The Biden administration is reportedly hoping for a limited counterstrike from Israel.
