Iranian officials privately told Trump administration advisers that they made a mistake by firing on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz and blamed the attacks on what they described as an “errant” faction of hardliners seeking to undermine negotiations, senior US officials told CBS News on Friday. The officials said Tehran also expressed a desire to continue talks.
The Trump administration wants Iran to publicly acknowledge what it considers a mistake and views the attacks as a violation of the ceasefire, the officials said. They added that Washington expects Iran to confirm after Saturday’s talks in Oman that the Strait of Hormuz will remain open and operate as it did before the conflict, the report said.
