Israel Tanker Attack

Two rockets launched from Lebanon on Wednesday struck Israel, which responded with artillery fire amid heightened regional tensions over an alleged Iranian attack on an oil tanker in the Gulf last week.

The United States on Monday promised to lead a "collective response" against Iran in retaliation for a deadly attack on an Israeli-linked tanker, as Tehran denied blame and warned against "adventurism."

Iran on Monday vowed to respond to any "adventurism", its foreign ministry said, after the US and Britain joined Israel in blaming Tehran for a deadly tanker attack, claims it denies.

Britain on Monday summoned Iran's ambassador to London in response to what it claims was a Tehran-ordered attack on a merchant vessel off the coast of Oman that killed a British and Romanian national.

The United States on Sunday blamed Iran for a deadly attack on an Israeli tanker off Oman, vowing an "appropriate response" was forthcoming.

Britain believes Iran deliberately carried out a deadly attack on an Israeli tanker off Oman last week, the foreign minister said on Sunday, urging Tehran to cease such attacks.

Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said Sunday Israel had "evidence" Iran was behind the deadly tanker attack off Oman despite its denials, and warned his country could "send a message" in retaliation.
