In talks on Tuesday with both Gance and the Prime Minister and head of the MFA, Qatar Blinken noted that he did not want to "further escalation of the conflict" - said Miller during the press briefing. At the same time, he pointed out that the decision about a possible military consequence to Iran's rocket attack would be a sovereign choice for Israel, but the US "clearly stated that we are committed to defending Israel, but we do not want escalation.".
