Dear colleagues,
In light of the ongoing arguments over whether the British naval
personnel detained by the Iranian government last week were in Iraqi or
Iranian waters, I have posted a map and some notes which reflect my
understanding of the boundary situation in the area at
http://www.dur.ac.uk/ibru/resources/iran-iraq/. I welcome your comments,
especially if you feel the notes contain any errors of fact.
Regards,
m a r t i n
