, E. S& Y V5 G* d9 y+ R, k3 |英国国防部27日公布了遭伊朗扣留女兵法耶-特尼的四张个人照片，同时向伊朗重申了英方的立场，并再次要求伊朗政府尽快并且安全地释放这些遭到“错误扣留”的英军士兵。' T: X* M' Z, k6 B( T1 ~; r
1 H4 E# q( }; D2 P2 P人在德国 社区 英国国防部官员表示，26岁的法耶-特尼是此次伊朗扣留的15名英军士兵之一，她也是目前唯一一名遭到伊朗扣押的女兵。法耶-特尼目前还是一位3岁女儿的母亲。此前有来自伊朗的报道说，被拘留的英军人员安全，而且得到妥善照料，英国国防部对此表示欢迎，并希望伊朗当局允许英国官员探望被拘留人员。英国政府和军方一致认为，当前最重要的工作就是保障这8名水手和7名海军陆战队员的安全，同时争取他们尽快获释。

这位官员在接受采访时说，“法耶-特尼被伊朗扣留的消息传出后，她的丈夫亚当-特尼和女儿莫莉-特尼十分焦急，他们整天留在家中等等消息。尽管伊朗方面声称被捕英兵状态良好，但特尼一家仍无法掩饰绝望的心情。英国国防部此次公布法耶-特尼的个人照片，最主要的目的就是缓解英国国内对士兵遭扣留而产生的焦虑情绪，同时希望伊朗能够从人道主义出发妥善解决此次危机。”csuchen.de5 a$ B( Z9 X2 e+ a+ o( ?/ c5 E
1 R5 q Q8 S! F* H* d) i 英国广播公司援引一位不愿透露姓名的伊朗人士的话说，这些士兵目前被关押在一个德黑兰的军事基地中。英国和伊朗正在进行谨慎和秘密的协商，但是他拒绝透露英国政府是否动用了卫星系统追查士兵的位置，同时对媒体提出的政府是否向伊朗方面提供士兵未侵入的证据这一问题保持沉默。正在土耳其访问的英国外交和联邦事务大臣玛格丽特-贝克特也要求伊朗政府告知被扣押士兵的具体下落，允许英方探视他们，以便了解更多详情。贝克特还再次强调说，这些士兵是在伊拉克水域执行任务时被逮捕的，并非如德黑兰所说闯入了伊朗水域。但截至目前，伊朗始终没有透露英军士兵被关押的地点，也拒绝让驻伊朗的英国官员前往探视，只是向英国大使亚当斯再三保证，他们的状况良好。+ f* g9 I5 ^, R
$ U; z! ?# y+ O/ Gcsuchen.de 一家由伊朗政府高官经营的网站就此事发表评论，称既然伊朗外交官在伊拉克的安全得不到保障，可以随意被美军逮捕，伊朗也没有任何理由原谅并归还这些闯入伊朗水域的英国水兵。约有数百名伊朗学生近几天甚至还聚集到海边举行集会，要求政府对西方国家采取强硬态度。伊朗武装力量总参谋长发言人阿夫沙尔将军也公开表示，被扣留的英军士兵目前已承认“非法侵入伊朗水域”的事实，伊朗应该以间谍罪和入侵罪起诉这些英国士兵。4 S! n( C1 ~8 O' E5 W

目前，欧盟、美国和伊拉克都公开对英军士兵被扣押一事表示关注，并敦促德黑兰政府尽快释放他们。伊拉克外长泽巴里日前还打电话给伊朗外长穆塔基，除重申上述呼吁外，还强调说，英军士兵是在伊拉克水域被逮捕的。不过联合国目前并未正式插手干涉此事。联合国总部副发言人告诉记者，联合国并未涉足此事，他们希望两国能够自行解决。就在外界密切关注英伊两国的外交动向时，俄罗斯媒体26日援引英国驻俄罗斯大使的话说，英国政府正向俄罗斯征询对此事的看法和意见，他希望士兵能早日被释放，并强调说，英国政府正在采取一切措施极力营救15名士兵。
