American officials have stated that the United States played no role in a recent Israeli military action, despite reports in some regional media suggesting Washington had given its approval. According to a U.S. official, American forces were not involved in the strikes, with further details referred to the Israeli Defense Forces.
A source with knowledge of the matter indicated that while Israel informed the U.S. about the operation in advance, the planning was not coordinated between the two nations. This position was echoed by other American officials who confirmed there was no coordination with Israel regarding the military action.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu characterized the operation as “an entirely independent Israeli initiative,” emphasizing that “Israel conceived it, and Israel bears complete responsibility for its execution.”
The Israeli Air Force reported using precision-guided munitions and additional intelligence resources for the operation, though specific details regarding aircraft types or weapon systems deployed were not disclosed.
