Bill Summary
Condemning Iran's unprecedented drone and missile attack on Israel.
AI Summary
This Resolution condemns Iran's unprecedented drone and missile attack on Israel, which occurred on April 13, 2024, and involved over 350 projectiles launched directly from Iran and its proxies. The resolution highlights that this attack followed a pattern of aggression from Iran-backed groups, including Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and militias attacking U.S. troops. It acknowledges that Israel, with assistance from the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Jordan, successfully intercepted 99 percent of these projectiles, minimizing damage and casualties, and underscores the importance of the security partnership between the U.S. and Israel, a major non-NATO ally. The resolution reaffirms Israel's right to self-defense and to respond to this aggression, calls for global condemnation of Iran's actions, commends the nations that aided in intercepting the projectiles, reiterates the U.S. commitment to Israel's security through assistance and defense sales, urges strict enforcement of sanctions against Iran to curb its nuclear program, missile development, and funding of terrorist groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, Palestine Islamic Jihad, and the Houthis, and pledges U.S. support to Israel for emergency resupply and other security, diplomatic, and intelligence needs.
