U.S. military targets vessel evading blockade
The U.S. military announced that it targeted and damaged a commercial ship attempting to breach the blockade of Iranian ports after it was hit by two missiles, mistakenly believed to be transporting Iranian gas. This incident resulted in the deaths of two crew members. These operations come amidst escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran, following the end of the ceasefire agreement between the two sides. Iran has issued threats of attacks on American bases in the region and has closed the Strait of Hormuz to shipping traffic, leading to a slowdown in vessel movement and a rise in oil prices.
