Report Claims US Didn’t Intercept Iranian Missiles Fired at Israel

(MENAFN) The United States did not intercept any Iranian ballistic missiles launched toward Israel during the latest escalation, according to a report citing a US official.

According to reports, a media outlet said a US military source clarified that no Iranian missiles were intercepted by American forces, contradicting earlier claims made by an Israeli military official. The report noted that this differs from previous rounds of conflict, when US systems were reportedly used to help defend Israel from Iranian missile attacks.

The official also said that coordination between US and Israeli forces remained close throughout the incident.

Israeli Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir is reported to have spoken twice with US Central Command (CENTCOM) commander Adm. Brad Cooper during the exchanges, according to the report.

The latest developments came after an escalation on Sunday, when Israel struck Beirut despite a ceasefire, prompting Iranian missile fire toward northern Israel. Israel later responded with multiple waves of airstrikes against targets in Iran.
