US tells Israel it won’t join any Iran retaliation

The United States has informed Israel that it will not be joining any potential retaliation against Iran, according to sources familiar with the situation. This decision comes amid rising tensions in the region following a drone attack on an Israeli-owned tanker last week.

The Biden administration is reportedly concerned about escalating the conflict further and is urging all parties involved to exercise restraint. The US has also expressed its commitment to diplomacy and finding a peaceful resolution to the ongoing disputes with Iran.

Israel, on the other hand, has been vocal about holding Iran accountable for the attack and has hinted at potential military action. However, without US support, Israel may be hesitant to proceed with any retaliatory measures.

As the situation continues to evolve, both countries will need to carefully consider their next steps and the potential consequences of further escalation in the region.
