Iran apologises over deadly strikes on Gulf neighbours

Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian apologised to its Gulf neighbours on Saturday for targeting them with deadly drone and missile strikes and claimed the assaults would end unless they were used as bases to attack Iran. In a pre-recorded video aired this morning, Pezeshkian expressed regret that his Middle Eastern neighbours, some of which host major US military bases, had come under fire. Speaking next to a picture of killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, he claimed that no more strikes would be aimed at Gulf states unless they are used as bases for further attacks against Iran.
