The foreign office has tonight denied that the foreign secretary David Lammy “expressed regret” about the US bombing Iran, which was claimed in an Iranian readout of a conversation he had with his Iranian opposite number, Abbas Araghchi. An FCDO spokesperson said: “This representation of the Foreign Secretary’s phone call is inaccurate. The Foreign Secretary warned that this is a moment of extreme peril and that it is important we now de-escalate the situation, stabilise the region, and get all parties back around the table to negotiate. Iran must now immediately seek a diplomatic, negotiated solution to end this crisis.”
