A year later, a British investigation report was released which stated that the area in which the incident took place was not covered by any formal agreement between Iran and Iraq.
یک سال بعد، در یک تحقیق که در کشور انگلیس صورت گرفت بیان شد که منطقه ای که در آن این حادثه رخ داد، به‌طور رسمی جزء مرزهای ایران یا عراق نبوده‌است.
