The Israeli regime is the prime suspect in a terrorist attack on a cargo ship belonging to the Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Line (IRIS) Group in the Mediterranean Sea earlier this week, an informed source says.

�Given the geographical location of the ship and the way it was�targeted, one of the strong possibilities is that this terrorist act was carried out by the Zionist regime (Israel),� the source told Nour News on Saturday.

Ali Ghiasi, the IRISL Group�s spokesman, told Nour News on Friday that one of its cargo ships had�been damaged after it was targeted by a terrorist attack en route to Europe in the Mediterranean Sea earlier this week.
