Iran’s isolated troops are choosing targets unsanctioned by leadership.

Foreign Minister Araghchi has, in the last few days, become the face of the regime, appearing on TV shows in the West to defend his country to the best of his ability.

But following the massive decapitation strikes by the US-Israeli forces, Araghchi made a stunning admission: the Civilian Government of Iran is no longer in control of its own military.

CNBC TV18 reported:

“Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi has said that recent incidents in Oman were not deliberate, stressing that Tehran did not intend to widen the conflict across the Gulf.”

“What happened in Oman was not our choice. We have already told our Armed Forces to be careful about the targets they choose.

Our units are now, in fact, independent and somewhat isolated, and they are acting based on general instructions given to them in advance.”

The remarks by Araghchi came after Iranian strikes expanded for a second day, with incidents reported in Dubai, Doha, Manama, and the Omani port of Duqm.

“Araghchi indicated that Tehran had communicated with regional partners to explain its position and prevent misunderstandings, as per Al Jazeera.”
