He said Iran would âno longer attack neighboring countries or launch missiles unless an attack on Iran originates from those countries.â
As the conflict escalates, efforts are continuing to bring British nationals home from the region.
The Foreign Office confirmed that a UK government-chartered flight could leave Dubai early next week to evacuate Britons stranded in the United Arab Emirates.
British nationals, along with their spouse or partner and children under 18, can register their interest in seats on the flight, although passengers will have to pay for the journey.
The charter service will operate alongside commercial routes that continue to run from the UAE.
More than 9,000 Britons have already returned home since the conflict erupted across the Middle East.
Two government evacuation flights have so far landed in the UK after departing from Muscat in Oman, with a third aircraft scheduled to leave on Saturday.
The first repatriation flight experienced significant delays earlier this week, leaving passengers distressed after the plane was grounded when the pilot exceeded permitted flying hours.
Some travellers described chaotic scenes as they waited to leave, claiming people suffered panic attacks while others banged on windows in frustration as they tried to get home.
The aircraft eventually flew via Cairo in Egypt before arriving at Stansted Airport in Essex at around 12.53am on Friday.
A second charter flight departed Muscat only hours later and landed in Britain on Saturday.
The Foreign Office said all passengers travelling on the evacuation flights must hold valid travel documents.
Non-British family members must also have a visa or permission to enter or remain in the UK that is valid for more than six months.
Officials said those who register will be contacted directly with ticket details, with priority given to the most vulnerable travellers, including people with urgent medical needs.
