BEIJING (Reuters) - Nobody wants war in the Gulf of Oman, China's foreign ministry said on Friday, calling on all sides to exercise restraint following attacks on oil tankers in those waters, and urging dialogue to resolve differences.

The United States blamed Iran for Thursday's attacks that drove up oil prices and fuelled concern about a new U.S.-Iranian confrontation, although Tehran has denied the accusation.
