In a written message to Washington, Iran “warned the US not to get dragged into Netanyahu’s trap”, Mohammad Jamshidi, the Iranian president’s deputy chief of staff for political affairs, wrote on X, referring to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The US should “step aside so that you don’t get hit”.
“In response, the US asked Iran not to hit American targets,” Jamshidi said. ⠀
NBC, citing two unnamed United States officials, said US President Joe Biden’s administration is concerned any attack could be inside Israel, specifically against “military or intelligence targets, rather than civilians”.
Don’t worry. They won’t.
We’ll fight them as long as they’re there.
