Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps claims it attacked the US Fifth Fleet headquarters and an airbase and helicopters in a regional country using missiles and drones, in response to what the IRGC describes as a US attack on an a communications tower south of Qeshm Island.

The IRGC also says its navy targeted a vessel it identifies as Panaya with missiles in response to what it says was a US attack on an Iranian tanker near the Strait of Hormuz with a projectile that damaged the engine room.

“Disrupting the security of the Strait of Hormuz will carry a heavy price for the US military,” local media cites the IRGC as saying.
