Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in an interview with Al-Araby al-Jadeed that Iran has not struck civilian or residential areas in the Middle East.

He emphasized that Tehran is ready to establish a committee with its neighbors to investigate responsibility for such strikes.

The Iranian foreign minister noted that Tehran maintains contacts with various Gulf states and would welcome any initiative that could guarantee a complete end to the US-Israeli war against Iran.

Gulf states have called on Iran to cease attacks on their territories, saying Iran is striking not only US military forces but also energy facilities and residential areas.

Earlier, the "Khatam al-Anbiya" headquarters claimed that the US and Israel had copied the Iranian Shahed-136 drone, designated "Lucas," to strike civilian infrastructure in regional countries as part of a deliberate false flag operation aimed at framing the Islamic Republic.
