Abbas Araghchi stated that Mojtaba Khamenei, the Leader of the Revolution, is in good health and managing the situation, and responded to the American attack on Kharg Island by saying that occupying the island would be a greater mistake. Araghchi also claimed that the U.S. has developed a drone similar to Iran's Shahed drone and suggested that Israel may be behind attacks on civilian targets in Arab countries to damage relations between them and Iran.
