US Military Targets Iranian Oil Tankers in Retaliatory Strike

The United States military conducted a retaliatory strike against Iran on Saturday, targeting and destroying three Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) crude oil tankers in the Persian Gulf. The attack came after Iran launched ballistic missiles at two US Navy vessels.

Footage shows large tankers engulfed in flames, with a thick plume of black smoke rising from the sea. A US military aircraft crew can be heard warning an oil tanker near Kharg Island before unleashing a barrage of missiles that lit the vessel ablaze.
