Iranian sources report that multiple anti-ship cruise missiles were launched from the city of Shiraz targeting US Navy warships in the Strait of Hormuz. The reports are preliminary and unverified; no details on interceptions or impacts are yet available.
This unverified report from Iranian sources indicates that multiple anti-ship cruise missiles have been launched from the city of Shiraz toward US warships in the Strait of Hormuz. The report follows a similar initial report at 00:43 Jerusalem (the same evening) that described a single anti-ship cruise missile launch from Shiraz, as covered by The Zioneer. No interceptions or impacts have been reported. The new report specifies the target as US warships in the Strait of Hormuz and uses the plural 'launches,' suggesting a multiple-missile salvo. The United States and the IRGC have been engaged in ongoing exchanges across the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz in recent weeks. The Zioneer continues to monitor the situation.
