The United States has communicated to Iran that it was not involved in an airstrike against a top Iranian military commander in Damascus, the White House said on Thursday.
"We communicated to Iran that the U.S had no involvement in the strike that happened in Damascus and we have warned Iran not to use this attack as a pretext to escalate further in the region or to attack U.S. facilities or personnel," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters.
