Iran naval ships enter Suez Canal, says official


Two Iranian naval ships entered the Suez Canal on Tuesday and were heading towards the Mediterranean, a canal official said.

"They entered the canal at 5:45 a.m.," the official told Reuters.

Israel had said it takes a "grave view" of the passage of the ships, which would be the first naval vessels to go through the canal since Iran's 1979 Islamic revolution.
