Sunday, Iran condemned, through a spokesman for the Foreign Ministry, "unfounded" Israeli Occupation accusations of involvement in an attack on an oil tanker operated by an Israeli Occupation businessman in the Arabian Sea Thursday, which led to the death of two crew members.

"The Zionist regime (...) must stop such baseless accusations," Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh told a press conference.

"This is not the first time that they make such direct accusations (...) such statements."

Two were killed in the attack on the oil tanker, which the US said was carried out by a suicide drone.
