🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷 Benjamin Netanyahu says US does not tell Israel what to do

The United States had no influence in how Israel chose its targets in Iran, Benjamin Netanyahu has said. The prime minister said his country chose where to strike based on “national interests, not according to what American dictates”.

Netanyahu’s office issued the statement in response to a “completely false” local television report that Israel had avoided striking Iranian gas and oil facilities because of US pressure.

President Biden said that he hoped the unprecedented wave of Israeli airstrikes launched on Iran on Saturday would mark “the end” of escalation between the two foes.

American officials claim they have for weeks been trying to convince Israel to limit their strikes to military installations, and said they categorised the attacks as a precise operation that avoided civilian areas.

Their role was downplayed by Netanyahu, who said his country chose its targets in Iran based on its “national interests and not according to American dictates”.

Iranian officials said they had “successfully” intercepted strikes on military sites in Tehran, Khuzestan, and Ilam, which had only caused “slight damage”.

However, Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi left the door to escalation open saying “our determination to defend ourselves knows no limits”.
