U.S. President Joe Biden urged Israel to explore alternatives to attacking Iranian oil facilities amidst growing tensions with Iran. Speaking at a White House briefing, Biden emphasized that while Israel has not yet finalized its response to Tehran’s recent ballistic missile strike, other options should be considered. “If I were in their shoes, I’d be thinking about alternatives,” Biden stated, discouraging strikes on oil fields. Tensions rose after Iran’s missile attack, which followed Israel’s military actions in Lebanon. Biden refrained from commenting on whether Israel’s actions were intended to influence the upcoming U.S. election.
