met. the leader of an israeli group, a member of the far right, he's a political ally of israel's national security minister, a man who sits in benjamin netanyahu's cabinet. so, while israel, to a certain extent, listened to american advice in that they carried out a limited strike inside of iran, a strike that appears designed not to lead to further escalation, it may be that these new sanctions lead to new friction with israel's government. >> raf sanchez, thank you very much. joining us is retired four star army general barry mccaffrey, msnbc military analyst, peter baker from ""the new york times" and msnbc political analyst, and allyse labot, professor at the school of international service. what do you make of this overnight strike on iran? >> i think this morning is a

being -- being responsible for the strikes, leading the u.s. to avoid confirming them as well. iranian officials are downplaying the strike today. iranian media reporting the target was a military base near a major nuclear site which officials say was not hit. were informed shortly ahead of time, just before the strike, secretary of state tony blinken emphasized at a g7 meeting that the u.s. had no part in it. >> i'm not going to speak to anything other than to say we were not involved in any offensive operations. >> last weekend's iranian strikes were in retaliation for an israeli strike on an iranian consular building in damascus, killing a general and several others, dismaying u.s. officials who feared it was an unnecessarily provocative move. joining us is raf sanchez in tel aviv and courtney kube. iran is minimizing the strike.

nations. in terms of what we know about the strike, it happened at about 4:00 a.m. local time, the main target appears to have been an iranian military base near the city of isfahan. that's a couple of hours south of deran. tehran. a source familiar with the situation tells me it was a limited strike, and in the hours afterwards israel was assessing the effectiveness of it. i will say, chris, it is calm. it is quiet on this shabbat night here in israel, heading into passover, and it is very, very notable that the israeli military has not imposed new restrictions on the civilian population, which is an indication that israel's government is not expecting retaliation at this time. >> raf sanchez in tel aviv, thank you. so gabe, the biden administration we know is frustrated by israel striking the iranian consulate in syria without warning. what did the u.s. know about this new attack and what's the

prime minister netanyahu hasn't commented either, nor have leaders in tehran who just days ago vowed a severe response to even the tiniest attack from israel. nbc's raf sanchez is reporting from tel aviv, nbc's gabe gutierrez is in washington. also with us, retired colonel jack jacobs, msnbc military analyst. so raf, what do we know about the impact of this strike, and what, if anything, can we make of the silence from the major players? >> reporter: well, chris, i think this silence is very, very telling. it appears to be an indication that neither side wants escalation at this point. we heard a little earlier today from the iranian president. he is a hard-liner. he's one of the iranian leaders who said last week that even a small israeli attack would trigger immediate and massive iranian retaliation, and instead, chris, he got through that speech without even mentioning this strike in isfahan. as you said, we did not hear

as the u.s. continues to urge israel to stay measured in its response to iran. it comes as a deal for a cease fire with hamas hangs in the balance, complicated by what u.s. and israeli officials are telling nbc news that it is unclear right now just how many of the hostages still in gaza are actually alive. nbc's raf sanchez joins us in tel aviv, and courtney kube is standing by at the pentagon for us. raf, how is this uncertainty over the status of these hostages complicating efforts to reach a cease fire and a deal of some sort to free hostages? >> reporter: so, ana, these talks were already in a bad place. they have been for weeks. this development bringing them to an even worse one. you'll remember the broad framework that the mediators that have been trying to get each side to agree to, hamas would leave 40 hostages from the humanitarian category, women, children, elderly, people with

the engines for the prime drones that we saw go after israel last weekend. now, again, the hope here is that if they go after these individuals and these companies, many of whom are directly tied into the iranian revolutionary guard corps, the military there, the hope is they will be able to degrade iran's military capability and either stop or deter or even degrade their ability to carry out a large-scale attack like we saw last weekend. >> courtney kube, raf sanchez, thank you both for your reporting. back at the new york city courthouse, 96 more prospective jurors have 96 more perspective jurors have been seated yet today. we're still watching that trial. more updates as we dpet them. up next, what one pennsylvania
