MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 02nd August, 2021) There are no indications that prove Iran's involvement in the attack on the Mercer Street tanker in the Indian Ocean, Russian Foreign Ministry's Second Asian Department Director Zamir Kabulov told Sputnik on Monday.
Earlier in the day, the UK Foreign summoned the Iranian ambassador in the wake of the recent attack.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry has refuted UK accusations as "absolutely groundless" and summoned the UK diplomat in Tehran.

Tehran has not yet requested Moscow's help over the incident with the vessel, the Russian official added.
