ANAA, March 14 (Saba) - Iran will respond firmly if the Israeli navy moves against its oil sales, Defense Minister Amir Hatami said on Wednesday.

Hatami was quoted as saying that such a move would be considered "piracy" and warned that "if it happens, we will respond firmly."

Iran's defense minister said a week after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the navy might act against Iran's "smuggling" of Iranian oil.
