US sends messages urging Iran to de-escalate: State Department

US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said on Monday that the United States is sending messages through diplomatic channels urging certain countries to inform Iran that escalation in the Middle East is not in its interest.

Miller did not specify whether Washington's messages had reached Iran.
