Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian apologised on Saturday to neighbouring countries for attacks launched during the Islamic Republic’s war with Israel and the United States.
“I apologise… to the neighbouring countries that were attacked by Iran,” said Pezeshkian in a speech broadcast by state TV.
The move was after Pezeshkian said that his country would never surrender to Israel and the United States.
Iran’s enemies “must take their wish for the unconditional surrender of the Iranian people to their graves,” Pezeshkian said, in a speech broadcast on state TV.
Israel and the United States launched strikes against Iran on February 28, killing the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and triggering a regional conflict.
Iran has since responded with missile and drone strikes on Israel and US interests in regional countries, mainly in the Gulf.
