Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Tuesday that the recent attack on the Iranian oil tanker SABITI in the Red Sea is "state-sponsored," state TV reported. Two separate explosions, possibly caused by the "missile strikes," hit the SABITI in the Red Sea some 60 miles (96.6 km) off Saudi Arabia's Jeddah port city on Oct. 11, causing damage to the ship's two main tanks.
