‘HIT THEM’: Iranians CHEER As U.S Warships DESTROYED by Iran Missiles| Iranians Celebrate on Streets

Dramatic scenes are emerging as tensions between the United States and Iran escalate in the Strait of Hormuz.

Iranian state narratives and social media clips appear to show crowds celebrating and chanting after claims of missile strikes targeting U.S. warships. However, U.S. officials maintain that all incoming threats were intercepted and no American destroyers were damaged, raising serious questions about conflicting narratives and information warfare

The incident comes amid a broader escalation involving missile launches, drone swarms, and retaliatory strikes across the Gulf region. While footage of celebrations is going viral, the reality on the battlefield remains highly contested

00:25Western Tehran.

00:27Late Thursday night into Friday morning, the streets are packed. Cars honking, flags waving, and one chant rising above everything

00:36else. Hit them, you'll hit them well. Iran just claimed it attacked three American warships in the Strait of Hormuz,

00:45and its people took to the streets to celebrate.

00:48Here's what set this off. News broke that Iran's IRGC Navy had launched a massive operation, anti-ship ballistic missiles,

00:58cruise missiles, and suicide drones, targeting the USS Truxton, USS Rafael Peralta, and USS Mason as they transited the world's

01:08most critical oil choke point.

01:09Iranian state media declared a decisive victory. Significant damage, American ships forced to retreat. Then, air defense systems activated over

01:21Tehran itself.

01:22The city heard the alarms, felt the tension, and instead of fear, crowds poured into the streets with flags. For

01:30many here, this wasn't a moment of dread. It was a moment of pride.

01:34One resident, speaking right there in the crowd, said it simply,

01:39Our forces are standing strong. They are hitting back and hitting well. This is what external pressure does inside Iran.

01:47It doesn't fracture the public mood. It fuses it.

01:51Every time American forces fire, every time sanctions tighten, every time a ceasefire frays, a segment of Iranian society doesn't

02:01turn on the IRGC. They rally behind it.

02:04Tonight, in western Tehran, the Strait of Hormuz felt like a victory parade, the chant echoing through apartment blocks and

02:12side streets.

02:13Here is the complicated reality. CENTCOM says no American ship was damaged. All missiles intercepted. The destroyers completed their transit.

02:24U.S. forces struck back, hitting Iranian missile sites, command nodes, and drone launch positions near Bandar Abbas and Keshe

02:33Island.

02:33Washington says it won. Tehran says it won. And yet, the celebrations in Tehran are real, regardless of who is

02:42telling the truth.

02:43The Strait of Hormuz moves a fifth of the world's oil. Oil prices are spiking. Shipping is on edge. And

02:50in western Tehran, they're honking horns and chanting into the night sky.

02:55Whatever actually happened in those 21 miles of water, the battle for the story is already being fought on the

03:03streets of Iran's capital. And tonight, at least, Iran thinks it's winning.
