The White House spokesman reiterated the US position that Iran was somehow involved in Hamas' attack on Israel, pointing out that Tehran has been supporting the terrorist group for many years now.

Kirby said that no one disputes the fact that Hamas could not function if not for the assistance they receive from Iran.

US and Israeli officials claim that they see no direct evidence that Iran was directly involved in these attacks. However, they will continue to study, monitor the intelligence picture and evidence, and see where it leads. 

US officials have said publicly in the past few days that they do not have evidence of Iran's direct involvement in the attack, but condemn Tehran as "complicit" in the aggression because of past support for Hamas.

Earlier, it was reported that the United States had received specific intelligence data that cast doubt on Iran's direct involvement in the planning, financing or approval of an attack on Israel by the Hamas terrorist group.
