US urges Iran to question weapons 'effectiveness' after Israel attack

On Friday, US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin said that Iran should reevaluate the effectiveness of its weapons systems following the attack on Israel earlier this month.

"They should be questioning the effectiveness of their weapons systems and their planning," Austin told 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.
