The Biden administration has reportedly asked Israel to notify it of any retaliatory measures against Iran and to allow the U.S. to have a say in what those measures are, the Axios report added, which comes as Biden has repeatedly attacked Israel in recent weeks for its war against Hamas inside Gaza.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned last week that the country will not hesitate to take preemptive military action against any threat it faces.
“Iran has been acting against us for years — directly and via proxies. And, therefore, Israel acts against Iran and its proxies — defensively and offensively,” he said. “We will know how to defend ourselves, and we will act according to the simple principle: that those who harm us or plan to harm us, we will harm.”
