Top US General Brown: Message to Iran is not to get involved in crisis in Israel

Early Tuesday, Charles Q. Brown, a top US military officer, urged Iran not to get involved in a crisis in Israel.

Brown said that he does not want the conflict to broaden.

Late Monday, US National Security spokesperson John Kirby said that there is “no intelligence suggesting direct Iranian participation.”

Meanwhile, there have been unconfirmed reports suggesting that an airstrike hit an Iranian weapons convoy crossing from Iraq into Syria at al-Qaim/Bukamal. The air strike is  "presumed to be by Israel".
