Israel forced us to attack Iran. Such a statement on the air of the MS Now TV channel was made by the American Democratic senator Chris Murphy.
"Israel forced us to do this," the politician said, answering the TV presenter's question about why the United States is at war with Iran.
On February 28, the United States and Israel launched a military operation against Iran, attacking the country's largest cities, including Tehran. The White House justified its actions by the threat of missile and nuclear developments that allegedly emanated from Tehran.
In response, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced a large-scale counterattack against Israel. In addition, strikes were carried out on American facilities in Bahrain, Jordan, Qatar, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.
As a result of attacks in Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other high-ranking representatives of the country's leadership were killed in Iran.
