US President Joe Biden promised "ironclad" support for Israel as Iran threatened reprisals over a strike that leveled an Iranian consulate building in Damascus and killed two generals.
Mr Biden's promise comes despite his public criticism of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the toll on civilians in Israel's campaign against Hamas, especially after a strike killed seven aid workers.
Iran is "threatening to launch a significant attack on Israel," Mr Biden told a news conference.
"As I told Prime Minister Netanyahu, our commitment to Israel's security against these threats from Iran and its proxies is ironclad," Mr Biden said.
