We do not republish articles from Reuters. Our findings are below, each quoting the words it is about. Read the full article on the outlet's own site.
Read the original article on reuters.com (opens in a new tab)Reuters reports that Iran attacked navigation systems on Oman's Didamar island, attributes this to three sources and Iranian state media, and says plainly that it could not verify whether anything was destroyed. It places the Iranian attacks on shipping within the US-Israeli war on Iran that began in late February. On verification, it reports that video footage showed smoke rising with no way to tell what was burning, and that a Copernicus satellite image showed thermal activity.
“since the US-Israeli war on Iran began in late February”
Reuters names who started the war in its own voice and does not present the disruption to shipping as beginning with Iran.
“Reuters could not determine independently if any navigation systems were destroyed in the attacks that Tehran had claimed on Tuesday”
The article states plainly what it could not verify and keeps Iran's claim marked as a claim.
“Reuters confirmed smoke rising from the island in video footage but it was unclear what was burning”
The outlet reports exactly what its own verification showed and goes no further.
