The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed it struck an American destroyer in the Indian Ocean, hundreds of kilometres from Iran’s borders.
Tensions resurfaced in the Gulf of Oman on Wednesday as Iran deployed a military helicopter to confront a United States Navy destroyer that was reportedly nearing Iranian territorial waters. Iranian state media described the encounter as “tense,” though the US military has downplayed the event, calling it a “safe and professional interaction” that had no impact on naval operations.
