Iran's navy launched four missiles at a US warship in the Gulf earlier tonight, according to a single military security channel on Telegram. The type of missiles, the identity of the vessel, and whether any were intercepted or struck are not yet reported.
The source tracking military security developments reported that the Iranian Navy launched four missiles at a US warship in the Gulf at approximately 02:26 Jerusalem time. The message provides no further details — the missile type, the specific vessel targeted, and whether any were intercepted or struck remain unconfirmed.
The launch comes against a backdrop of ongoing exchanges between US and Iranian forces in the Gulf and Strait of Hormuz over the past 72 hours. As The Zioneer has reported, Iran has conducted multiple cruise missile salvos at US warships since late Monday, and the US has continued airstrikes on Iran's southern coast. The US Navy has also disabled at least one Iranian-affiliated vessel in the Sea of Oman.
This report is based on a single source. The IDF has not commented, and no international outlets have yet corroborated the claim. The Zioneer will update as more information becomes available.
