US warns Iran that escalating conflict could cause severe economic damage

The Wall Street Journal quoted a U.S. official on the 8th as saying that the U.S. government has clearly informed Iran and also sent a warning through an intermediary.If Iran launches a large-scale retaliatory attack on Israel, it could be devastating to Iran's new government and economy.

US State Department Spokesperson Miller:

We have always said that the United States has the ability to deliver messages when it is in our interest, but we don't usually talk publicly about what those messages are. You often see messages that are not completely accurate. But escalation could really hurt the Iranian economy, and indeed the economies of every country in the region.
