Republican Senator Ted Cruz says he is will be flying to Israel in the coming days “to assess what they need to protect their national security, which is closely tied to America’s national security.”
Earlier this week, he called on Biden to replenish Israel’s stock of Iron Dome missiles in light of the ongoing rocket attacks. In a briefing earlier that day, Israeli security officials told reporters there is no shortage of Iron Dome missiles.
Incredible.
In the coming days, I will travel to Israel to assess what they need to protect their national security, which is closely tied to America's national security. https://t.co/NwcwMJfOnM
