Iranian oil tanker attacked by pirates: the Iranian navy intervenes, with the US

(B2) In our series, if the pirates weren't there, we would have to invent them. Iranian Hida tanker attacked by pirates on Sunday led to reconciliations
incongruous. According to the Irna agency which gave the information, it was one of the Iranian warships patrolling the region which intervened. Followed immediately after by a US warship
and another from Saudi Arabia... NB: meanwhile, violent clashes continue in Iran, causing dozens of deaths.
