00:00At my direction, the United States military actively supported the defense of Israel,
00:05and we're still assessing the impact. But based on what we know now, the attack appears to have
00:09been defeated and ineffective. And this is testament to Israeli military capability and
00:15the U.S. military. It's also a testament to intensive planning between the United States
00:21and Israel to anticipate and defend against the brazen attack we expected. Make no mistake,
00:28the United States is fully, fully, fully supportive of Israel. And I just got spent the
00:34morning and part of the afternoon in the Situation Room and meeting with my whole national security
00:41team and consulting with the Israelis indirectly in terms of their impact on us. And the national
00:49security team has been, as I said, in constant contact with Israeli officials and their counterparts.
