WASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman John Sarbanes (MD-03) released the following statement today regarding Iran's recent attack on Israel:

"I am grateful that Israel's defenses succeeded in thwarting yesterday's missile attack by Iran. This reinforces the critical importance of ongoing U.S. support for Israel's security apparatus as well as careful coordination among Israel's allies. I join President Biden and Vice President Harris in expressing solidarity with the Israeli people and commend the Administration for its continued diplomatic efforts to de-escalate conflict in the region, avert civilian casualties and reestablish a framework for achieving peace and stability."
