U.S. says “not involved” in Israel’s strikes against Iran

The Trump administration is warning Iran not to target U-S interests or personnel. The State Department said the United States is “not involved” in Israel’s attack against the Iranian capital. And in a written statement Secretary of State Rubio said: “Let me be clear: Iran should not target U-S interests or personnel.” He said “Israel took unilateral action against Iran” and the administration’s “top priority is protecting American forces in the region.” President Trump had been urging Israel to hold off an attack as the U-S conducted nuclear talks with Iran.
