Spokesperson for the US State Department, Tammy Bruce, is speaking now, APA reports citing BBC.
She says that as the conflict between Israel and Iran continues, President Trump has been clear that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.
Bruce adds that the State Department has established a Middle East task force to help coordinate support for citizens and diplomatic missions.
She reminds US citizens to not travel to Israel, Iraq, or Iran.
She clarifies that the task force involves people taking calls from American citizens around the world and making sure they get what they need.
Bruce takes a moment to say that there will be less that she can answer at today's briefing "because of the circumstances we're dealing with around the world".
