Israel did not claim responsibility for the airstrike on April 1. But Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said Israel "must be punished and shall be" for an operation he said was equivalent to an attack on Iranian soil.

Kirby said the United States was looking at its own force posture in the region in light of Tehran's threat and was watching the situation very closely.
