BREAKING: Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman denies that Tehran launched drone attack on oil tanker off Oman that killed 2.
The comment by Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh marked the first official comments on the attack from Tehran, which will see a new president inaugurated Thursday.
The strike Thursday night on the oil tanker Mercer Street marked the first-known fatal attack after years of assaults on commercial shipping in the region linked to tensions with Iran over its tattered nuclear deal. While no one has claimed responsibility for the attack, Israeli officials alleged Tehran launched the drone strike.“Such blame games are nothing new,” Khatibzadeh said.
