Iran says Qatar’s accusation that it struck an oil tanker is ‘unacceptable’

Iran condemns Qatar for accusations that it was behind an attack on one of the Gulf emirate’s vessels, after Doha said Tehran had targeted a liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanker off the coast of Oman.

“Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said Qatar’s accusations against Iran over the alleged attack on a vessel linked to the country in the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday were questionable and contrary to the principle of good neighborliness, describing them as unacceptable,” state news agency IRNA reports.
