President Joe Biden issued his first public warning to Iran since the Hamas attack on Israel as he faced growing pressure to freeze $6 billion of Tehran’s assets.
‘We’ve ‘made it clear to the Iranians: Be careful,’ Biden said at a meeting with Jewish leaders at the White House Wednesday.
He also detailed a new arms shipment to Israel that includes interceptors for its Iron Dome defense system and ammunition for the Israel Defense Force.
Following the horrific Hamas attack on Saturday, Biden made a brief statement lasting three minutes, before remaining publicly silent for three days.
In an emotional speech on Tuesday he did not specifically mention Iran, but instead issued a general warning that no country or group should try to exploit the situation.
