Answer:

To Othello and the others, Iago pretends not to understand how the whole fight came about, but he defends Cassio, saying that Cassio surely received from "him that fled" (Roderigo) some "strange indignity, / Which patience could not pass." To Cassio, he says that the incident is not serious. He reassures Cassio that Othello is only angry, and will soon forgive him
