Two Israeli-Arab terrorists affiliated with the Islamic State were shot dead after they killed two Israeli police officers, a 19-year-old man and a 20-year-old woman, and wounded 10 others in the northern Israeli town of Hadera on Sunday night.

Israel and US See “Eye-to-Eye” in Preventing Iran from Creating a Nuclear Bomb

The US and Israel “see eye to eye,” on keeping Iran from creating a nuclear weapon, reported US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who held a press conference with Yair Lapid, Israel’s alternate prime minister and minister of foreign affairs, today in Jerusalem.

Blinken added that The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which is a 159-page document of non-nuclear proliferation to which Iran agreed in 2015 with China, France, Germany, Russian, the UK, and the US, is the best way “to put Iran’s nuclear program back in the box it was in.”

“Beyond its nuclear efforts, Iran continues to engage in a whole series of destabilizing activities,” said Blinken, who also criticized the Yemen-based and Iranian-backed Islamicist group, “the Houthis,” which have attacked Saudi and Emirati civilians and infrastructure. “The US will continue to stand up to Iran when it threatens us or our allies and partners,” he says.
