WASHINGTON, April 14 — President Joe Biden has told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the United States would not participate in any Israeli counter-offensive against Iran, a White House official said today.
Iran launched hundreds of drones and missiles at Israel last night in response to a suspected Israel attack on Iran’s Syria consulate on April 1.
In a statement issued late yesterday following the attacks, Biden said he told Netanyahu that Israel had “demonstrated a remarkable capacity to defend against and defeat even unprecedented attacks.”
Biden did not say in the statement if he and Netanyahu discussed a possible Israeli response or potential US involvement.

John Kirby, the White House’s top national security spokesperson, told ABC’s “This Week” program today that the United States will continue to help Israel defend itself, but does not want war with Iran.
Asked if the United States would support retaliation from Israel in Iran, Kirby said that “our commitment is ironclad” to defending Israel and to “helping Israel defend itself.”
“And as the president has said many times, we don’t seek a wider war in the region. We don’t seek a war with Iran. And I think I will leave it at that,” Kirby added.
