Beschreibung:

The United States intervened in the Syria‑Israel conflict to de‑escalate the situation, a process that is continuing, says White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, after Israel conducted air strikes on its neighbor following sectarian bloodshed there. As soon as the United States became involved, we were able to de‑escalate and de‑conflict, she says at a regular press briefing. Syria agreed to draw back their troops that were in the area where the clash was ongoing, and we continue to be very actively monitoring the situation.
