Financial Times – US Warns Iran Not To Escalate Gaza War Into Broader Mideast Conflict 

The US has held back-channel talks with Iran, to warn the Islamic Republic against escalating war between Israel and Hamas into a broader regional conflict, the Financial Times says.

The paper quotes President Biden’s national security advisor, Jake Sullivan, saying the US had the means to speak with Iranian authorities privately and that “we have availed ourselves of those means over the past few days to make clear privately that which we have said publicly”.
