Description

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken warns Iran that the United States will respond "decisively" to any attack by its proxies, as tensions rise with the Israel-Hamas war.

We will defend our people -- we will defend our security -- swiftly and decisively," Blinken tells a UN Security Council session. SOUNDBITE
