Iran FM rejects reports it fired missiles at Turkey, offers probe
Tehran, March 31 (AFP) Mar 31, 2026
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Tuesday rejected as "completely baseless" reports that the Islamic republic had fired missiles at Turkey and offered to jointly investigate the issue.

In a phone call with his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan, Araghchi warned against "false-flag operations by enemies" and said Iran was "ready for joint technical cooperation to examine any possible claim", according to a statement by the Iranian foreign ministry.

On Monday, Turkey's defence ministry said NATO forces had intercepted a new missile fired from Iran -- the fourth since the start of the Middle East war.
