Iran Claims It Halted Planned Ukraine Strikes After Kyiv Apology (Unverified)

Iranian senior adviser Mohsen Rezaei says Tehran planned three Ukrainian strikes but canceled after Kyiv allegedly apologized; the claim, published by PressTV on Aug 3, is unverified and lacks evidence for both the apology and the targets. He linked the threat to a Caspian Sea incident and warned Tehran would enforce a specific corridor through the Strait of Hormuz, highlighting ongoing tensions with Ukraine as Kyiv seeks de-escalation.
