Let my sailors go

Iran is to release the one woman amongst the fifteen British sailors that they have seized, alleging that they were violating Iranian waters. There is no suggestion as to when the other fourteen sailors would be set free.

The British government is now claiming that they have proof that the boats where in Iraqi waters when they were seized.

As far as I know the British government has not attempted to refute Iranian claims that, even if they were indeed in Iraqi waters when they were seized, they could have penetrated Iranian territory within forty five minutes.
