The U.K. is fielding accusations from Iran regarding their involvement in an Ahwaz bombing this week.

Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki claims that there are photographs with U.K. officials and the bombers.

"It is clear for our officials and intelligence centers that the United Kingdom co-operated and had a hand in these bombings either in London or Basra," says Mottaki in a press conference.

A U.K. Foreign Office spokesman in London denies the accusation, according to BBC, saying Britain condemns terrorism.

"Any linkage between HMG [Her Majesty's Government] and these terrorist attacks is completely without foundation," says the official, in the report.

The bombing occurred in a private bank and led to the death of eight people.
