US officials have rejected claims that Iran has seized an oil tanker.
A statement from the Pentagon denied the allegations in a statement issued Friday stating "Similar, baseless allegations concerning Iran's oil and gas supply have been made more than once. Wrong, US forces did not seize any Iranian oil tanker.
It should be noted that Iran had claimed that the United States tried to seize an Iranian oil tanker in the Oman Sea, which was thwarted by the Iranian army.
