Iran denies claims it fired missiles at Diego Garcia

Tehran [Iran], March 24: Iran has denied targeting a joint military base of the United States and the United Kingdom on the Indian Ocean island of Diego Garcia with missiles, dismissing the claim as an "Israeli false flag" attack.
Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said on Monday the accusations reflected a pattern of "disinformation" after NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said the alliance could not confirm Israel's claim that the projectiles used were Iranian intercontinental ballistic missiles.
"That even the NATO Secretary General (who is infamously pressing Alliance members to appease the US and support their illegal war on Iran) declines to endorse Israel's most recent disinformation, speaks volumes: the world has grown thoroughly exhausted with these tired and discredited 'false flag' storylines," Baghaei wrote on X.
Earlier, US media outlets said missiles were launched between Thursday night and Friday morning, but they failed to hit the Diego Garcia base.
