How would Donald Trump react to the Israel-Gaza conflict if re-elected? | LBC

Former National Security Adviser John Bolton tells Tom Swarbrick it is ‘impossible to predict’ how Donald Trump would handle the situation in the Middle East if he were re-elected.

It comes after Joe Biden has vowed that the US' support for Israel remains "ironclad", as Iran prepares to launch an attack in response to the Israeli strike on the Iranian consulate in Syria.

The US believes Israel was responsible for the attack on the consulate, which killed two senior Iranian generals, among others.

Israel has not openly taken responsibility for the strike, but Iran has said that it considers Israel responsible.

Separately, the UK's Foreign Secretary David Cameron said on Wednesday: "Britain stands with our allies, crucially, including the United States, we stand up for Israel’s right to self-defence."

Iran's Ayatollah Khamenei vowed revenge on Israel in a sermon marking the end of Ramadan.

He said: “When they attack the consulate, it is as if they have attacked our soil.

"The evil regime made a mistake and must be punished and it shall be."
