US denies involvement in Israeli strike on Beirut - Axios

Jun 8, 2026, 00:06 GMT+1

The White House did not give Israel a "green light" for its strike in Beirut and was not involved in the operation, according to two senior US officials cited by Axios reporter Barak Ravid.

"A senior U.S. official told me the White House didn't give a 'green light' to the Israeli strike in Beirut," Ravid wrote on X.

"We had no part in this," a second US official told him.
