Mousavi called on US President Donald Trump to reassess US troops' behaviour in the Middle East instead of making "dangerous moves" and putting forward "groundless accusations."
In the early hours of Friday, US conducted precision strikes on five weapon storage facilities of the Iran-backed Shia militia Kataib Hezbollah.
