Berlin: President Joe Biden indicated that he had details on Israel's expected response to Iran's October 1 missile attacks but declined to share those publicly on Friday.

Biden was asked by a reporter if he has an understanding of what Israel would do in response to the attack and when that response would take place.

"Yes and yes," Biden said in Germany, as he prepared to board Air Force One to return to Washington after a brief visit. Asked if he would share that information, the US president tersely responded "no and no."
