It shows that the British sailors were within Iraqi waters when they were arrested. When the Iranians said they arrested the sailors, they said they were on a merchant ship at a particular point. Once the British showed that that point was STILL within Iraqi waters, the Iranians changed their story.
This is a simple matter of Iran trying to deflect attention away from it's nuclear program and do a possible prisoner swap. It shows how desperate Iran is to keeping it's grip on the minor amount of regional power it has.
They are now saying they will release the only woman in the group "shortly"
They are also saying that the sailors have "confessed"
