US 'not looking for a war with Iran,' White House says, strikes designed to 'put an end' to attacks on troops

Fox News chief national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin has the latest on the retaliation against the drone attack on U.S. servicemembers in Jordan on'Your World.' The White House stressed Friday evening that the United States is "not looking for a war with Iran," saying the retaliatory strikes carried out in Syria and Iraq were designed to "de-escalate" tensions and "put an end" to attacks on U.S. troops in the region. The United States began retaliatory strikes on more than 85 targets in Iraq and Syria against Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force and affiliated militia groups and proxies. The strikes come in response to the deaths of three U.S. service members last Sunday on a U.S. base in Jordan. White House National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby stressed that the United States is not seeking conflict with Iran or in the Middle East, but explained that the strikes that began Friday evening "will not end" tonight.
