Tehran, January 13 (RHC)-- Iran has released two U.S. Navy patrol boats carrying 10 crew members hours after detaining them for entering Iranian waters.

The Barack Obama administration says the boats drifted into Iran's territorial waters after experiencing "mechanical problems."

The detention came just days before a landmark nuclear deal between Iran, the U.S. and other world powers is set to be implemented.
