U.S. Says It 'Strongly' Backs Israel Operation against Suspected Hizbullah Tunnels
The White House gave full backing Tuesday to an Israeli army operation to destroy tunnels allegedly built by Hizbullah under the border with Lebanon.
President Donald Trump's national security adviser John Bolton said that "the U.S. strongly supports Israel's efforts to defend its sovereignty."
"More broadly, we call on Iran and all of its agents to stop their regional aggression and provocation, which pose an unacceptable threat to Israeli and regional security," Bolton said.
