Middle East

US vetoes widely supported resolution backing full UN membership for Palestine
 

NBC - Israel carried out a limited military strike against Iran and is assessing the strike’s effectiveness and the damage it caused, a source familiar with the situation told NBC News. Iran state media reported that three small drones were destroyed in Isfahan province, and state media reported that there had been no casualties or damage, including at the nuclear facility in Isfahan. The U.S. was not involved in Israel's strike in Iran, a source familiar with the situation confirmed, adding that Israeli officials notified U.S. officials earlier that a response was coming. Israeli officials have remained largely silent on the country’s strike, with National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, a member of a far-right party, summing up his thoughts in one word in a post on X: “Feeble.”
