Abstract

This article seeks to demonstrate the fact that since 7000 years ago, the Tunb and Abumusa islands have been part of Iran. To do this, the article surveys the historical background of Iran’s sovereignty over these islands and provides some British documents which certify to this fact. This article also refers to the UAE claim over these islands and verifies the documents it offers and shows that these documents are not valid.
