British media quoted reports from the British Navy and the British Maritime Agency that a tanker flying the Panamanian flag was suspected of being hijacked by armed men in the Gulf of Oman on the 3rd. The source said that the British government believes that the incident is related to Iran.
For related claims, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Khatibzad denied it. He said that Iran believes that recent reports of “continuous security incidents” in related areas are very suspicious. Iran warned other countries not to promote certain political purposes by publishing false information in the region. Khatibzad stated that the Iranian navy is ready to provide assistance to any ships passing through the area. In addition, the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps also stated that it has nothing to do with the incident in the Gulf of Oman.
