US Boosts Israel's Defenses Amid Fresh Threats by Iran | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Amid rising tensions in West Asia, the US is sending troops to Israel, along with an advanced antimissile system. President Joe Biden said the move is intended "to defend Israel." Israel is planning retaliation against Iran after Tehran launched over 180 missiles at Israel on October 1, 2024. The Pentagon emphasised that this action underscores United States' "ironclad commitment" to defend Israel from any further ballistic missile attacks by Iran. This move comes following a fresh threat from Iran over the weekend. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared, "We are prepared for any kind of circumstances. We are ready for war, but we are also ready for peace. Its (Israel) war, conflict, and operations against the people of Gaza and Lebanon must be stopped." What is this US antimissile system, and how will it defend Israel? Palki Sharma brings you the details.
