On Saturday, Israel‘s Channel 12 had told residents “not to go to bed yet” because an unprecedented attack on Iran is coming. The country’s war cabinet approved a “powerful response on Iranian soil”.
US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said Israel and other nations were “effective” at neutralizing the threat from Iran over the weekend, adding that the attack could have caused a “significant loss of life.”
He said Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken have “consulted extensively with partners in the region and around the world.” They are calling for the international community to “act as a united front”.
Blinken said the US had been “coordinating a diplomatic response to seek to prevent escalation”. He added: “I’ve been in close communication with counterparts in the region and we will continue to do so in the hours and days ahead.”

Blinken continued: “We don’t seek escalation, but will continue to support the defence of Israel and to protect our personnel in the region.”
Miller said Iran’s attack “threatens to destabilise the region” and “violated the sovereignty of several states.”
Once again going against the Israeli official’s call for a coordinated attack with the US, Miller said his country wants de-escalation not an all-out war.
