The United Arab Emirates seized a ship several weeks ago that was bound for Iran and carrying North Korean weapons in violation of a U.N. embargo, Western diplomats said on Friday, according to Reuters.

"They (UAE) did seize the ship and it was carrying weapons from North Korea for Iran," a U.N. Security Council diplomat said on condition of anonymity, confirming a report in the Financial Times newspaper.
