The White House has reported that Iran launched nearly 200 ballistic missiles towards targets in Israel. According to U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, the attack was repulsed and deemed ineffective, with no reported deaths or damage to military assets in Israel. Early reports indicate no deaths within Israel, and the U.S. described the defense as a significant success. The United States coordinated closely with the Israeli Defense Forces, including the involvement of U.S. naval destroyers, to help defend against the attack. However, there is a reported death of a Palestinian civilian in the West Bank. Sullivan described the attack as a significant escalation by Iran and stated that discussions with Israel about the response are ongoing.
