00:25Another vessel reportedly hit.
00:28Ballistic missiles targeting a major American airbase.
00:32And a rapidly expanding cycle of strikes and retaliation across the Gulf.
00:38Iran's Revolutionary Guards claim they have disabled a second U.S. vessel in the Strait of Hormuz
00:44and launched another missile attack targeting Al-Oded airbase in Qatar
00:49as the confrontation with Washington enters an even more dangerous phase.
00:58The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says Iranian forces have launched a new wave of retaliatory attacks
01:05following major U.S. strikes on military targets inside Iran.
01:10According to the IRGC, Iranian forces struck and disabled what it described
01:15as a second American vessel operating in the Strait of Hormuz.
01:19The circumstances of the reported maritime attack and the extent of any damage
01:23were not immediately independently confirmed.
01:27At the same time, Iranian forces reportedly launched another wave of ballistic missiles
01:33targeting Al-Oded airbase in Qatar, one of the most important American military installations in the Middle East.
01:39The latest Iranian claims come after the United States dramatically expanded its military campaign against Iran.
01:48U.S. Central Command says American forces completed a third round of strikes against Iran this week.
01:54According to CENTCOM, approximately 140 Iranian military targets were hit with precision munitions
02:02launched by fighter aircraft, drones and naval forces.
02:06The U.S. military said the targets included missile and drone sites,
02:10naval capabilities, immunity storage facilities, communications networks and coastal surveillance positions.
02:17CENTCOM says across three nights of operations this week, American forces have struck more than 300 targets.
02:25Washington says the objective is to degrade Iran's ability to attack civilian mariners and commercial vessels
02:32transiting the Strait of Hormuz.
02:34The latest American operation followed an attack on the Cyprus-flagged container ship MVGFS Galaxy.
02:41The vessel suffered major engine room damage and an onboard fire, while one civilian crew member was reported missing.
02:49Iran subsequently announced restrictions through passage through the Strait of Hormuz, further escalating the crisis.
02:56But CENTCOM says commercial traffic through the strategic waterway continues.
03:00The U.S. military says American forces have helped facilitate the passage of hundreds of commercial vessels through the Strait
03:07since early May.
03:08Now, Iran appears to be responding on multiple fronts.
03:12The latest escalation comes as several Gulf states find themselves increasingly exposed to the confrontation.
03:19Missile alerts and interceptions have already been reported across the region during recent waves of Iranian retaliation.
03:26The Strait of Hormuz remains at the heart of the crisis.
03:30A major share of global oil supplies passes through the narrow waterway.
03:34Repeated attacks, military strikes, and uncertainty over navigation have raised fears of disruption to global energy supplies.
03:43The United States says its military operations are intended to protect international shipping.
03:48Iran says its actions are retaliation for American attacks on its territory and military infrastructure.
03:55And caught between the two are Gulf states, commercial vessels, and one of the most important energy corridors in the
04:02world.
04:03For now, CENTCOM says it has struck hundreds of Iranian targets.
04:08The IRGC claims it has retaliated against another vessel and a major American airbase.
04:14And as both sides continue trading fire, the danger is no longer limited to the Strait of Hormuz.
04:21The confrontation is spreading across the Gulf, and the risk of a wider regional war is rising with every new
04:28round of retaliation.
04:31It's official, all sharks from the UK.
