MORE ON MIDDLE EAST
Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
'Tit-for-tat'
The seizure has heightened tension between Iran and Britain,
which is party to Iran's 2015 multinational nuclear deal. The
Daily Telegraph newspaper reported on Saturday that London
was planning to target Iran with sanctions in the aftermath of
the tanker seizure.
In a letter to the United Nations Security Council, Britain said
the tanker was approached by Iranian forces in Omani
territorial waters where it was exercising its lawful right of
passage, and that the action "constitutes illegal interference."
US-Iran friction
Tensions in the Gulf have soared in recent weeks, with US
President Donald Trumpcalling off air raids against Iran at the
last minute in June after Iranian forces downed a US drone,
and blaming Iran for a series of tanker attacks.

Iran says tanker crew
safe, warns UK against
rising tensions
Stena Impero's crew is in good health,
authorities say as they seek access to
'evidence' for a probe into alleged crash.
9 hours ago
Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"The Revolutionary Guards responded to Britain's hijacking of
the Iranian tanker," parliament speaker Ali Larijani told a
parliament session aired live on state radio.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
"The investigation depends on the cooperation by the crew
members on the vessel, and also our access to the evidence
required for us to look into the matter."

MORE ON MIDDLE EAST
Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
'Tit-for-tat'
The seizure has heightened tension between Iran and Britain,
which is party to Iran's 2015 multinational nuclear deal. The
Daily Telegraph newspaper reported on Saturday that London
was planning to target Iran with sanctions in the aftermath of
the tanker seizure.
In a letter to the United Nations Security Council, Britain said
the tanker was approached by Iranian forces in Omani
territorial waters where it was exercising its lawful right of
passage, and that the action "constitutes illegal interference."
US-Iran friction
Tensions in the Gulf have soared in recent weeks, with US
President Donald Trumpcalling off air raids against Iran at the
last minute in June after Iranian forces downed a US drone,
and blaming Iran for a series of tanker attacks.

Iran says tanker crew
safe, warns UK against
rising tensions
Stena Impero's crew is in good health,
authorities say as they seek access to
'evidence' for a probe into alleged crash.
9 hours ago
Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"The Revolutionary Guards responded to Britain's hijacking of
the Iranian tanker," parliament speaker Ali Larijani told a
parliament session aired live on state radio.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
"The investigation depends on the cooperation by the crew
members on the vessel, and also our access to the evidence
required for us to look into the matter."

Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and

Iran says tanker crew
safe, warns UK against

Stena Impero's crew is in good health,
authorities say as they seek access to
'evidence' for a probe into alleged crash.

"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out

"The investigation depends on the cooperation by the crew
members on the vessel, and also our access to the evidence
required for us to look into the matter."

MORE ON MIDDLE EAST
Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
'Tit-for-tat'
The seizure has heightened tension between Iran and Britain,
which is party to Iran's 2015 multinational nuclear deal. The
Daily Telegraph newspaper reported on Saturday that London
was planning to target Iran with sanctions in the aftermath of
the tanker seizure.
In a letter to the United Nations Security Council, Britain said
the tanker was approached by Iranian forces in Omani
territorial waters where it was exercising its lawful right of
passage, and that the action "constitutes illegal interference."
US-Iran friction
Tensions in the Gulf have soared in recent weeks, with US
President Donald Trumpcalling off air raids against Iran at the
last minute in June after Iranian forces downed a US drone,
and blaming Iran for a series of tanker attacks.

Iran says tanker crew

Stena Impero's crew is in good health,
authorities say as they seek access to
'evidence' for a probe into alleged crash.

"The investigation depends on the cooperation by the crew

Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out

'Tit-for-tat'
The seizure has heightened tension between Iran and Britain,
which is party to Iran's 2015 multinational nuclear deal. The
Daily Telegraph newspaper reported on Saturday that London
was planning to target Iran with sanctions in the aftermath of
the tanker seizure.
In a letter to the United Nations Security Council, Britain said
the tanker was approached by Iranian forces in Omani
territorial waters where it was exercising its lawful right of
passage, and that the action "constitutes illegal interference."
US-Iran friction
Tensions in the Gulf have soared in recent weeks, with US
President Donald Trumpcalling off air raids against Iran at the
last minute in June after Iranian forces downed a US drone,
and blaming Iran for a series of tanker attacks.

Iran says tanker crew
safe, warns UK against
rising tensions
Stena Impero's crew is in good health,
authorities say as they seek access to
'evidence' for a probe into alleged crash.
9 hours ago
Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"The Revolutionary Guards responded to Britain's hijacking of
the Iranian tanker," parliament speaker Ali Larijani told a
parliament session aired live on state radio.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
"The investigation depends on the cooperation by the crew
members on the vessel, and also our access to the evidence
required for us to look into the matter."

Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
'Tit-for-tat'
The seizure has heightened tension between Iran and Britain,
which is party to Iran's 2015 multinational nuclear deal. The
Daily Telegraph newspaper reported on Saturday that London
was planning to target Iran with sanctions in the aftermath of
the tanker seizure.
In a letter to the United Nations Security Council, Britain said
the tanker was approached by Iranian forces in Omani
territorial waters where it was exercising its lawful right of
passage, and that the action "constitutes illegal interference."

Iran says tanker crew
safe, warns UK against
rising tensions
Stena Impero's crew is in good health,
authorities say as they seek access to
'evidence' for a probe into alleged crash.
9 hours ago
Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"The Revolutionary Guards responded to Britain's hijacking of
the Iranian tanker," parliament speaker Ali Larijani told a
parliament session aired live on state radio.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
"The investigation depends on the cooperation by the crew
members on the vessel, and also our access to the evidence
required for us to look into the matter."

Iran says tanker crew
safe, warns UK against
rising tensions
Stena Impero's crew is in good health,
authorities say as they seek access to
'evidence' for a probe into alleged crash.
9 hours ago
Iran, which says the seized tanker risked maritime safety and
has opened an investigation, remained defiant. Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's actions were
taken to "uphold" international maritime rules.
"The Revolutionary Guards responded to Britain's hijacking of
the Iranian tanker," parliament speaker Ali Larijani told a
parliament session aired live on state radio.
"We are ready to meet their needs. But we have to carry out
investigations with regards the vessel," he said.
"The investigation depends on the cooperation by the crew
members on the vessel, and also our access to the evidence
required for us to look into the matter."
'Tit-for-tat'
The seizure has heightened tension between Iran and Britain,
which is party to Iran's 2015 multinational nuclear deal. The
Daily Telegraph newspaper reported on Saturday that London
was planning to target Iran with sanctions in the aftermath of
the tanker seizure.
