Iranian reports, cited by Israeli journalist Hannanel Aviv, claim an exchange of fire between US forces and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in the Strait of Hormuz. The reports also describe launches from Iranian territory toward ships in the strait. The information is single-sourced and unverified.
Iranian sources, cited by Israeli journalist Hannanel Aviv, are reporting an exchange of fire between US forces and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in the Strait of Hormuz, as well as launches from Iranian territory toward ships in the waterway. The reports are preliminary and have not been independently verified.
The Zioneer has previously reported on multiple similar unverified claims of clashes between US and Iranian forces in the Strait of Hormuz over the past month. These include reports of exchanges of fire, drone downings, and warning shots, all attributed to Iranian channels or journalists. None of the earlier reports have received official US or Iranian confirmation.
The situation remains unclear. No immediate comment was available from the US Central Command or the IRGC. The reports come amid heightened tensions in the Persian Gulf region.
