Trump says 'Iran did do it,' as U.S. seeks support on Gulf oil tanker attacks

Thursday's attacks raised fears of a confrontation in the vital oil shipping route at a time of increased tension between Iran and the United States over U.S. sanctions and military moves in the Middle East, Tehran's proxy groups in the region and its nuclear programme.
