Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the United States is focused on de-escalating the heightened tension between Israel and Iran following the former’s retaliatory attack on the latter.
Israel reportedly launched a strike that hit a military site in central Iran overnight early Friday morning. The strike represents a limited response to Iran’s unprecedented attack on Israel last week, and it demonstrates Israel’s ability to hit targets within Iran’s borders, which is a development given Israel’s previous hesitation to aim at targets in Iran.
