Washington, DC – The United States accused Iran on Monday of “actively facilitating” attacks on US forces in the Middle East as it confirmed it had sent a small number of military advisors to Israel.
“We know Iran’s goal is to maintain some level of deniability here, but we’re not going to allow them to do that,” Kirby added. Iran’s Shiite clerical leaders support Hamas as well as the Lebanese Shiite movement Hezbollah, Shiite paramilitary groups in Iraq and Yemen’s Huthi rebels.“We see a prospect for much more significant escalation against US forces and personnel in the near-term,” the official told journalists, characterizing the recent spike in attacks as “efforts by Iran and Iran proxy forces to seek to escalate this conflict.
Israeli officials say more than 1,400 people have died, mostly civilians, in the worst attack since Israel’s creation in 1948. “You can understand perfectly clearly why that’s an intolerable situation for Israel, as it would be an intolerable situation for any country that has suffered such a brutal terrorist attack and continues to see the terrorist threat right on its border,” he said.
