Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: After the publication of reports by Zionist media sources about the postponement of the pre-planned visit of Yoav Gallant, the Minister of War of the Zionist regime, to Washington, on Tuesday evening, the US Ministry of Defense confirmed these news. 

On Tuesday, an Israeli media reported that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu canceled the Israeli Defense Minister's visit to the United States. Axios reporter Ravid also wrote in response to this news: According to an informed source, until Netanyahu succeeds in making a phone call with President Biden and the Israeli cabinet approves the response to Iran's missile attack, the Israeli prime minister will not issue the minister's travel approval. Defense to Washington, scheduled for tonight, withholds.

In a statement, the Pentagon also expressed its support for the actions of the Zionist regime in southern Lebanon and announced: "The trip of the Israeli Defense (War) Minister to America has been postponed."

Meanwhile, the Pentagon announced in a statement on Sunday evening that Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant will visit America on October 9 at the invitation of American Defense Minister Lloyd Austin.

In this regard, the Washington Post newspaper, in a report referring to the sudden cancellation of the planned visit of Yoav Galant, the Minister of War of the Zionist regime, to the United States, has considered it as an indication of the tension between Washington and Tel Aviv.

America: We are not looking for war with Iran

Also, a spokesperson of the US Ministry of Defense announced that this country is not looking for war with Iran.

A spokesman for the US Department of Defense stated on Tuesday evening that the US "has clearly stated that it does not seek war with Iran" and "demands that Israel clarify its plans for a military response to Tehran's missile attack."

In response to a question about the nature of the Zionist regime's possible response to Iran's legitimate missile attack, this spokesman said: "We do not speculate on this issue."

On the other hand, Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh announced on Tuesday evening that the United States will continue to consult with the Israeli regime regarding a possible response to Iran's missile attack last week.

Pointing out that US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin will contact Israeli War Minister Yoav Gallant by the end of this week, Singh said: "We will continue to consult with Israel regarding their possible response."

NBC News reported that Austin was angry that the Zionist regime had not informed Washington earlier about its plan to attack Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah.
