WHAT HAPPENED
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei rejected claims that perpetrators of the September 11 attacks were Iranian and criticized US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for invoking the anniversary to justify war against Iran.
SO WHAT?
The dispute underscores continuing US-Iran tensions and competing narratives that could reinforce confrontation, but no new military action is established here.
