Scripps News spoke with a representative from the Israel Defense Forces about the need to maintain the protection of the Iron Dome.
A key part of President Biden's pledge to expand defense aid to Israel is to bolster its vaunted Iron Dome air defense system. Israel has asked not only for interceptors but also additional Iron Dome batteries.
"We are desperately in need still of those Iron Dome missile defenses, because we see exactly the terror that they can still unleash on us," said Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Fay Goldstein. "We just walked away from one of those missile fires, and we felt comfortable enough to walk away thanks to the Iron Dome," Goldstein said."We would have heard and seen explosions if we didn't have the Iron Dome."
"We need to rid Gaza of Hamas and we need to make sure that we do that again from the top leaders to the bottom foot soldiers," Goldstein said."That's our goal, however long and whatever, we were ready for it."
