US Targets Iranian Oil Tankers in Shadow Network Strike

The US military has struck three Iranian oil tankers, targeting a shadow network that allegedly funds Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guard and its armed proxies in the region.

The attack comes after a month-long pause in US strikes on Iranian targets, following intensified fighting around the Strait of Hormuz. The US military said an American aircraft carrier and destroyer evaded 'multiple unprovoked Iranian attacks' while patrolling in the area, but no US personnel were hurt.
