American media claim; that Washington asked Tel Aviv not to respond to the attacks in Yemen.
According to the claim of the Wall Street Journal on Thursday, Washington asked Tel Aviv not to respond to Yemen’s missile and drone attacks and to allow the US military, which has several ships in the region, to act in this regard.
