Britain accused Iran on Tuesday of breaching its assurances that a tanker held off Gibraltar this summer would not transport oil to Syria, and summoned the Iranian ambassador to protest.

"It is now clear that Iran has breached these assurances and that the oil has been transferred to Syria and (President) Assad's murderous regime," the Foreign Office said, adding that it would raise the issue with the UN.
