Iran will continue to defend itself against aggression, ambassador to UK says
AI Summary
Iran's ambassador to the UK, Seyed Ali Mousavi, stated that Iran will continue to defend itself against aggression from the US and Israel. Speaking to the BBC, Mousavi said that if facilities or bases are used against Iran, they would be considered legitimate targets. While Iran's president apologized to Gulf neighbors and promised to stop attacks, Mousavi maintained Iran's right to strike targets across the region where military bases are located, depending on the activities of the US and Israel. This statement comes after days of strikes across the Middle East, including in Gulf countries like Qatar and the UAE, as well as retaliatory attacks by Iran following strikes by the US and Israel. The ambassador's comments suggest a willingness to de-escalate but affirm Iran's right to defend itself.
