Why are Iranian leaders giving conflicting messages about Gulf attacks?

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian apologized to neighboring countries affected by Tehran’s retaliatory strikes amid U.S. and Israeli military actions. However, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) countered, stating that Iran would continue its attacks if these countries allowed U.S. and Israeli operations from their territory. Pezeshkian later clarified that Iran targeted U.S. military bases, not neighboring countries, while also emphasizing Iran’s right to self-defense. Mixed messages from Iranian leaders have raised concerns about the country’s intentions in the region.
