US
security services and Israeli intelligence agency Mossad may be
behind the recent destabilization in the Persian and Oman gulfs,
Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, a senior foreign policy adviser to the
Iranian parliament speaker, said amid the oil tanker incident in
these waters.
“US
security services&Mossad main suspects for insecuring
#PersianGulf/#OmanSea oil export. KSA,UAE,Bahrain stupidity fan the
flame of violence in region. #Iran powerfully protects national
interests®ional stability, disappoint regional security’s
enemies & retreat #WhiteHouse,” Amir-Abdollahian tweeted late
Thursday.
Earlier
on Friday, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said that the United
States was taking steps to undermine stability in the Middle East and
the whole world
Tensions
between the United States and Iran reached new levels after two oil
tankers exploded on Thursday near the strategically important Strait
of Hormuz, located between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman.
While
the circumstances around the incident remain unclear, Washington has
already pinned the blame on Iran, claiming it has intelligence data
to back the assertion. The United States has even announced that its
USS Mason destroyer was on its way to the Gulf of Oman. Tehran has,
meanwhile, rebuffed all accusations.
