US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin says that Iran should question the effectiveness of its weapons systems after its failed attack on Israel earlier this month.
“They should be questioning the effectiveness of their weapons systems and their planning,” Austin tells reporters.
“Hopefully, they don’t walk away from this over-confident that they can do this at will, because I think Israel has demonstrated that it has a significant ability to defend itself,” Austin added.
