Deputy Press Secretary of US Department of State Sabrina Singh referred to the attacks on US base in Jordan during a press conference.
“I am tracking approximately 80 US personnel have received non-serious injuries since the attacks began.
We don't want to see a widening of this conflict. We don't see this conflict widening as it still remains contained to Gaza, but this attack was certainly escalatory in that it killed three service members -- three of our U.S. service members. And as the President has said, we don't seek conflict, we don't want to see a widen -- widen -- a widening of a regional war but we will respond at a time and place of our choosing.
We have said and we will continue to call out the fact that Iran does fund and equip these -- these groups and provide them the capabilities that they use to attack our service members, whether it be Iraq, Syria, or Jordan”, Singh said.
