Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a June 12 press release that the Israeli government acted unilaterally in its decision to strike Iran, and the United States provided no direct assistance in the attack.
“We are not involved in strikes against Iran and our top priority is protecting American forces in the region,” Rubio said.
