BREAKING: US Strikes Iran After Iran Shoots At US Navy

Big breaking news this afternoon out of Iran as the Pentagon has confirmed Iran launched strikes on US Navy Destroyers.

Luckily, those strikes were all intercepted and no damage was done.

The US Military continues to perform flawlessly!

Watch President Trump right here:

BREAKING: The Pentagon has CONFIRMED Iran attacked US Navy destroyers, but those strikes were intercepted.

Missiles, drones, and small boats were used against the USS Truxton, USS Raphael Peralta, and USS Mason.

NONE of our assets were struck, thank God.

President Trump warned them the retaliation would be swift and severe if Iran did this, and counterstrikes now on Iran have already begun.

Fox News had more details:

The U.S. military also struck Iran’s Bandar Kargan naval checkpoint in Minab, officials confirmed.

The development came as Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency also reported air defense activity in western Tehran.

Two other loud explosions were heard Thursday night, while eyewitnesses told Iran International they heard multiple blasts in Chitgar.

Iran’s state-run Mehr News Agency also reported attacks and exchanges of fire across Iran’s southern Hormozgan province near Bandar Abbas, Bandar Khamir, Sirik and Qeshm Island, according to reports.

Thursday’s strike on Iran’s major port came two days after Iran fired 15 ballistic and cruise missiles at the UAE’s Fujairah Port.

Those strikes sparked anger among Gulf countries, officials told Griffin, though Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Gen. Dan Caine had said during a Pentagon briefing May 5 that those attacks did not amount to a violation of the ceasefire.

Hegseth and Caine described the attacks as low-level incidents that did not rise to that threshold.
