US Military Destroys Five Iranian Oil Tankers Amid Escalating Tensions
The US military's Central Command (Centcom) announced on Tuesday that it had destroyed five Iranian crude oil tankers in response to Iran's IRGC targeting a US Navy warship with ballistic missiles twice over the last two days.
No American personnel were harmed during the attempted attacks, according to Centcom.
The attack came after Iran's IRGC targeted a US navy warship twice, and the US warship successfully evaded the attempted Iranian attacks.
