United States National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby said on Wednesday that there is still no "specific evidence" that proves that the Iran government participated in any way in supporting Hamas in planning or executing the recent attacks that started last Saturday.

"We obviously recognize that there's blood complicity here by the Iranians. I mean, because of the long-standing support to Hamas, Hamas wouldn't have been able to function at all had it not been for propping up by the Iranian regime. But we haven't seen any specific evidence that tells us they were winning, involved in the planning, or involved in the resourcing and the training that went into this very complex set of attacks," Kirby pointed out.

Regarding the humanitarian aid for the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, he said that the US will continue pursuing efforts to secure it and avoid a humanitarian crisis.
