Iran strikes five Gulf states: Arab league convene emergency session

On Saturday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian surprised many observers by apologizing for strikes on neighboring countries and saying the conflict should be resolved diplomatically. But since then, strikes from Iran have continued in the Gulf.

Professor of US and International Politics at University College Dublin, Scott Lucas, shares further insights.
