IRGC claims new attacks on US warships enforcing naval blockade

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed fresh attacks on US warships patrolling near the Strait of Hormuz as part of Washington's naval blockade, releasing video it said showed explosives-laden projectiles hitting vessels in the strait.

Why this matters. Continued IRGC strikes on US naval assets raise the risk of direct US-Iran military escalation and further deter commercial shipping from transiting Hormuz, deepening the global fuel supply crisis.
