MNA � British foreign minister Jeremy Hunt said he had spoken to his Iranian counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif and expressed his �extreme disappointment� over Iran�s seizure of a British-flagged tanker in the Strait of Hormuz on Friday.

�Just spoke to ... Zarif and expressed extreme disappointment that having assured me last Saturday Iran wanted to de-escalate situation, they have behaved in the opposite way,� British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt tweeted on Saturday, according to Reuters.

�This has to be about actions not words if we are to find a way through,� Hunt added. �British shipping must and will be protected.�

Iran�s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) said in a statement last night that it had captured a British oil tanker for violating international maritime law while crossing into the Strait of Hormuz.
