US President Joe Biden tells reporters that the US had no prior knowledge of the major Israeli strike targeting a Hezbollah command center in Beirut and that Washington did not participate in the operation.
“We’re still gathering information. I can tell you the United States had no knowledge of, or participation in, the IDF actions… I’ll have more to say when I have more information,” Biden says.
