The United States says it wasn't involved in the apparent cyberattack on Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility on Sunday, which Tehran has described as “nuclear terrorism” carried out by Israel.

“The US was not involved in any manner,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said when asked on Monday. “We have nothing to add on speculation about the causes or the impacts.”
