According to the Wall Street Journal, a US official revealed that Israel's defensive interception missiles are running low. This has raised concerns about the country's ability to respond to Iran's long-range ballistic missile capabilities if the conflict is not resolved soon. The official stated that the United States has been aware of its inventory issue for several months and has been strengthening Israel's defense through land-based, sea based, and air based systems. Since the escalation of the conflict in June, the US Department of Defense has deployed more missile defense equipment to the region, and now the US is also facing concerns about the rapid consumption of interception missiles. Tom Karako, Director of the Missile Defense Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in the United States, said, "Neither the United States nor Israel can continue to sit around all day waiting to intercept missiles. Israel and its allies need to take all necessary actions as soon as possible, because we cannot afford it and cannot just passively respond
