US blames Iran for Gulf tanker attack
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo points finger at Iran in Thursday's attacks on two tankers in the Gulf of Oman.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo pinned attacks on two tankers in the Gulf of Oman on Iran Thursday, just hours after the Pentagon deployed a nearby destroyer to assist victims of the blast.
In brief remarks at the State Department, the top US diplomat insisted that only Tehran was capable of launching the attacks that incapacitated Norwegian and Japanese shipping vessels.
