US Vice President Kamala Harris said in an interview that the US has "absolutely no intention” of sending American combat troops into Israel or Gaza amid fears over a wider regional conflict, reported from CNN.

"We have absolutely no intention, nor do we have any plans, to send combat troops into Israel or Gaza, period,” Harris said in an interview with CBS’ "60 Minutes” that aired Sunday.

Harris, who has been included in briefings and phone calls on the Middle East crisis, closely stuck to the administration’s approach: Supporting Israel’s right to defend itself while also calling for the protection of civilians.
