LONDON, June 14 (Reuters) – Britain blamed Iran and its Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on Friday for attacks on tankers in the Gulf of Oman, saying no other state or non-state actor could have been responsible.
British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt condemned the attacks, said they had violated international norms, and called on Iran to stop all forms of destabilising activity.
“These latest attacks build on a pattern of destabilising Iranian behaviour and pose a serious danger to the region,” he said in a statement.
