But when Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu directly accused Iran of being behind the attack, Iran's Foreign Ministry denied it:
Speaking at a weekly press conference on Monday, Saeed Khatibzadeh categorically rejected the accusations made by the Zionist regime that Iran has been connected to explosions on board MV Helios Ray cargo ship.The fact that the source of such an allegation is the Zionist regime reveals how baseless the accusation is, he stated.
There you have it, If Israel says something, it is by definition false, so therefore Iran must be innocent!
A glance at a map of the area in the Gulf of Oman where the ship was bombed shows that the only possible attacker is Iran itself. There are no Houthi frogmen laying mines or Hezbollah torpedoes in the Gulf of Oman.
