Iran says ready to help investigate strikes on civilian areas

Iran says ready to help investigate strikes on civilian areas Iran's foreign minister denied that Tehran has targeted civilian or residential areas in the Middle East and said the country is ready to form a committee with its neighbours to investigate the responsibility for such strikes. Abbas Araqchi said in an interview with Al-Araby al-Jadeed website that Tehran was in communication with various Gulf capitals and would welcome any initiative that could guarantee a complete end to the US-Israeli war on Iran. President Donald Trump has reportedly rebuffed efforts by Middle Eastern allies to start diplomatic negotiations aimed at ending the war, sources familiar with the matter told Reuters Saturday.
