Details on the five Iranian tankers targeted
The United States launched strikes on five Iranian oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman, including the destruction of the "Cavis," "Sharmeen," "Horizon 1," and "Reysco" tankers near Kharg Island, in addition to targeting a liquefied natural gas vessel. These actions came in response to ballistic missile launches by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps against a U.S. Navy warship, along with ongoing tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. The targeted oil tankers are believed to function as a covert network financing the Revolutionary Guard. The attacks ranged from destroying and steering off the ships, with Iran issuing threats to attack oil tankers in the region in retaliation for American escalation. Additionally, the Revolutionary Guard announced the seizure of an American drone submarine, a claim which U.S. officials have denied, affirming that the submarine is old and does not carry secret equipment.
