15 UK Sailors Seized by Iran

Fifteen British sailors patrolling boats off the coast of Iraq were seized by up to six Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy ships for allegedly crossing into Iranian waters. The British soldiers were just about to leave a merchant vessel they were inspecting when they were surrounded by the Iranian Navy and seized.

It is not clear where the soldiers were taken, by the British defense ministry is pursuing the seizure "at the highest level." They have demanded the immediate release of the soldiers and have called on the Iranian ambassador in London.

I suspect that Iran will return the soldiers very shortly. Any harm to the soldiers could potentially lead to war with the Allied forces, and I don't think Iran wants that. For all the saber rattling that Ahmadinejad has done, it seems clear that Supreme Leader does not want an invasion by US-led forces.
