WTF?

From Janes Naval Forces News Brief:

Report says UK urged caution to US commanders after Iranian seizure of sailors.
British government officials told the US Navy (USN) that low-flying operations over the Northern Arabian Gulf "would not be helpful" following the seizure of 15 UK Royal Navy personnel by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, it has emerged. A UK parliamentary report says that the efforts to persuade the US to scale back its planned military manoeuvres were key in helping secure the release of the eight sailors and seven Royal Marines in April.
