G7 says Iran behind tanker attack

Foreign ministers from G7 said Iran was threatening international peace and security and that all available evidence showed it was behind an attack on the Mercer Street tanker last week. In a separate statement, the U.S. military said recovered pieces of the drone were nearly identical to previously-collected samples of Iranian attack drones and that the distance to the locations of the attacks was within the range of documented Iranian one-way attack drones. Tehran has denied any involvement in the suspected drone attack in which two crew members – a Briton and a Romanian – were killed.
