Former US President Donald Trump stated that Israel should hit Iran's nuclear facilities amid rising tensions in the region during a campaign rally in Fayetteville on Saturday.
The Republican nominee said that incumbent US President Joe Biden 'got that one wrong' when the leader earlier announced he will not support Israel's plans to strike nuclear facilities in Iran.
"When they asked him that question, the answer should have been, hit the nuclear first and worry about the rest later," he continued. "And that's why they should. That's what. If they're (Israel) going to do it, they're (Israel) going to do it, but we'll find out whatever their plans are."
Trump claimed that hitting the facilities is the 'biggest risk we have' in battling the 'power of nuclear weaponry', adding "I rebuilt the entire military, jets, everything I built it, including nuclear, and I hated to build the nuclear, but I got to know firsthand the power of that stuff."
According to media reports, Biden, along with G7 states, held a phone call meeting on Wednesday to discuss imposing sanctions in Iran after it fired numerous strikes in Israel.
The US leader stated after the meeting that he will not be supporting Tel Aviv's plans to strike nuclear facilities in retaliation but "will be discussing with the Israelis what they're gonna do."
Biden also reiterated Israel’s right to defend itself and respond 'proportionally' to the attacks.
Iran claimed the attacks on Israel were in response to the assassinations of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah and IRGC commander Abbas Nilforoshan in Lebanon, as well as the death of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said that Iran had made a 'big mistake' and warned of 'consequences'. On Tuesday, Israel also began a 'limited and targeted' ground incursion into Lebanon, following a week-long campaign of airstrikes in the south of the country.
