JAKARTA - Iran was asked not to respond to Israeli attacks on its territory last weekend. Iran previously insisted it would retaliate against Israel with a "dangerous way".

This was conveyed by White House Spokesman Karine Jean-Pierre in response to reporters' questions about Iran's response to Israeli attacks.

"Iran shouldn't have responded to Israel's retaliation," Jean-Pierre said.

"If Iran chooses to respond, the US will be ready to assist Israel in its defenses," he continued.

Meanwhile, US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller did not give an assessment of what Iran might or might not do.

He reiterated that the US believed Iran should not respond retaliably.

"I will not talk about communication between our two governments, both real and imaginary. But as we have explained openly, and I can tell you that Iran is aware of this message quite clearly, they should not continue to increase this conflict," he said separately.
