According to a statement from Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman, recent accusations leveled against Tehran by Western powers and some regional countries are in fact "false flags" — incidents that are staged or fabricated — aimed at creating a pretext to justify war against Iran.
The remarks come amid escalating tensions between Iran and several Western nations, with accusations centering on Tehran's nuclear program and regional activities. Iran has repeatedly rejected these accusations, saying they lack foundation and are politically motivated.
The spokesman said Iran is not seeking to escalate tensions and called on the international community to take an objective view, urging that unfounded allegations not be exploited to legitimize military action.
This is the latest development in a prolonged series of tensions between Iran and the parties involved, as all sides continue to issue contradictory statements about the causes of and responsibility for recent incidents in the region.
