Primary source Internal intake · 2 reviewed intake signals · Desk window 21:54

TL;DR

The United States denied being behind the current attacks on Iran, stating that another party is responsible. The statement follows foreign reports attributing the strikes to Kuwait.

01 · THE DISPATCH

The United States has denied being behind the ongoing attacks in Iran, with a statement that 'we are not the ones attacking now, it's someone else.' The denial comes minutes after foreign reports emerged attributing the attacks to Kuwait rather than the US. As The Zioneer reported earlier, the foreign reports suggest Kuwait is responsible for the strikes, though details on targets and damage have not been independently confirmed. The US denial is consistent with earlier reports from Axios, citing a US official, that the US is not striking Iran. The situation remains unclear, with no official confirmation from Iranian sources or an independent assessment of who is conducting the strikes.
