The American National Security Council released a statement today (Sunday) placing the blame for the Majdal Shams massacre squarely on Hezbollah and emphasizing America's desire to bring about a diplomatic end to the border war.
In the statement, released by US NSC Spokesperson Adrienne Watson said that "This attack was conducted by Lebanese Hezbollah. It was their rocket, and launched from an area they control. It should be universally condemned."
Watson then went on to reiterate America's unwavering support for Israeli security while "working on a diplomatic solution along the Blue Line that will end all attacks once and for all, and allow citizens on both sides of the border to safely return to their homes."
