LONDON/ANKARA(Reuters) - An English court has cleared the way to consider whether it will allow the families of some of those killed in the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the United States to make a claim on Iranian assets in Britain.

The relatives want the English High Court to enforce a 2012 decision by a U.S. court which found there was evidence to show that Iran provided "material support and resources to al Qaeda for acts of terrorism". The militant group carried out the attacks.
