https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/06/releases-video-claims-shows-iran-removing-tanker-190614021100937.html"Iran Foreign Minister Javad Zarif hit back at Pompeo, saying on Thursday the US allegations against Iran were part of "sabotage diplomacy" adopted by a so-called B Team, which he has said includes US National Security Adviser John Bolton, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed.
"That the US immediately jumped to make allegations against Iranw/o a shred of factual or circumstantial evidenceonly makes it abundantly clear that the #B_Team is moving to a #PlanB: Sabotage diplomacyincluding by @AbeShinzoand cover up its #EconomicTerrorism against Iran," Zarif tweeted.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe had been visiting Iran in an attempt to ease tensions and was meeting with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei when the reported attacks occurred."
