United States urges Iran to avoid furthering 'tensions' after Hezbollah pager blasts

The United States on Tuesday urged Iran to avoid actions that could escalate tensions after a series of explosions involving pagers used by Hezbollah, which resulted in the injury of Iran's ambassador.

"We would urge Iran not to take advantage of any incident to add further instability or increase tensions in the region," State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told reporters, as suspicion turned toward Israel.
