The explosions hit two tankers - Front Altair and Kokuka Courageous - in the Gulf of Oman on 13 June. Following the incident, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo claimed that Tehran was behind the attack, while Iran denied all allegations, calling them baseless, APA reports citing Sputnik.
"The attack against the tankers in the Gulf of Oman is a worrying development and a dangerous escalation", the UAE minister of state for foreign affairs, Anwar Gargash, tweeted after Thursday's blasts.
Earlier in the day Iran also urged the United States and its allies in the Middle East to "stop warmongering" and stop conducting false flag operations in the region.
