IRAN – Nilinaw ng foreign minister ng Iran na buhay pa ang supreme leader ng nasabing bansa, kasama ang lahat ng high-ranking officials.
Ito ay kasunod ng mga inilunsad na strike ng Israel at Estados Unidos sa bansa nitong Sabado, Pebrero 28.
Ayonk kay Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, si Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei ay buhay “as far as I know,” sabay sabing “all high-ranking officials are alive.”
Sinabi pa ni Araghchi na nakikipag-ugnayan din siya sa Gulf States at “explained to them that we have no intention to attack them, but we are actually attacking the American bases in the act of self-defense.”
Idinagdag pa na bagamat wala pang komunikasyon sa Washington sa kasalukuyan, “if Americans want to talk to us, they know how they can contact me. We are certainly interested in de-escalation.” RNT/JGC
