The Pentagon denied the desire to overthrow the government in Iran with the help of strikes

The US attack on Iran's nuclear facilities was not carried out to overthrow the government in the Islamic Republic. This was announced on June 22 by Pentagon Chief Pete Hegseth.

"This mission was not related to regime change," he said at a press conference in Washington.

He noted that the strikes were authorized by US President Donald Trump only in order to neutralize the threat that the Iranian nuclear program allegedly poses to the United States and Israel.
