Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei vowed Tuesday that the Islamic republic will retaliate against Britain for the seizure of an Iranian tanker off Gibraltar earlier this month.

"The vicious British... have committed piracy and stolen our ship... God willing, the Islamic republic will not leave these vicious acts unanswered," he said in a speech in Tehran partly aired on state television.
