Summary

Description
English: Map issued by the Ministry of Defence at a media briefing (28 March 2007) on the position of Royal Navy personnel when arrested by Iran. The Foreign Affairs Select Committee inquiry later found that this map was "less clear than it ought to have been" after hearing evidence that the water boundary shown had merged the land boundary that follows the Shatt al-Arab waterway and about 8 nautical miles (15 km) of land exposed at low tide with the median line between the two unshown low water lines, and that the 1975 Algiers Agreement "southern terminal point ... lies just under 1.7 nautical miles northeast of the position" shown on this map.
