Tensions between the United States and Iran have escalated again after U.S. forces struck two Iranian launchers on Larak Island, according to a U.S. official.
The strikes reportedly targeted launchers that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps was preparing to use for rockets and sea mines near the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian state media said several soldiers and civilians were killed or wounded in the attack, while Tehran warned that it would respond.
The incident marks the first known U.S. strikes against Iran since late July and comes as the conflict enters its seventh month. The Strait of Hormuz remains a major flashpoint because it is one of the world’s most important routes for oil shipments.
With Washington warning against any new attempts to mine the waterway, the latest attack could further increase tensions across the region.
