WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Pentagon Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh on Thursday declined to comment on whether Iranian oil facilities would be potential targets in an expected Israeli strike on Iran.
"Detailing out from here what potential targets might look like, I just don't think that serves a purpose or is really that helpful," Singh said during a press briefing.
US President Joe Biden said he does not support an Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear sites but left the door open when asked whether he'd support an Israeli strike on Iran’s oil facilities.
