Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin recently engaged in discussions with his Israeli counterpart regarding regional stability and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East. The Pentagon released a readout of the conversation, highlighting key points of the dialogue.
The conversation between Austin and Israel Defense Minister Yoav Gallant took place following Israeli strikes in Iran. Despite the recent military actions by Israel, the readout did not explicitly reference these strikes. The Biden administration has maintained a reserved stance in response to the Israeli operations.
