A top White House national security adviser on Sunday said the United States sees an “elevated risk” of the Israel–Hamas war widening into a regional conflict.

“We are vigilant, because we are seeing elevated threats against our forces throughout the region and an elevated risk of this conflict spreading to other parts of the region. We are doing everything in our power to deter and prevent that,” U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan told CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday.
