The US had no advance warning of Israel's strike on Hezbollah's central headquarters in Dahiyeh, Beirut on Friday, the Pentagon said, and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin learned of the operation while it was underway during a phone call from Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
"We are still assessing the event and don't have any additional information or any further specifics to provide at this time," Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh said.
Singh did not comment on Israel's target or if Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah is alive.
