US President Joe Biden's administration warned Iran against another attack on Israel because the United States would not be able to contain the Jewish state if it responded. This was reported by the Axios portal, citing sources.
“We will not be able to contain Israel and we will not be able to be sure that the next Israeli attack will be calibrated and targeted like the previous one,” the portal reports the words of an American official.
According to him, the message was transmitted from Washington to Tehran through Switzerland. Israel may carry out a retaliatory attack even if the strikes are carried out from Iraqi territory.
“Everything will depend on how massive the attack is and what its results are,” one Israeli official told Axios. According to the portal, the Israeli attack on Iran on October 25 came after several weeks of consultations with the United States and discussions about the targets of the strikes.
The White House and Iran's permanent mission to the UN declined to comment, the portal writes.
