What happened

Well supportedReported by 6 independent outlets

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is intensifying attacks against US targets and Gulf states while strengthening its forces. In response to the IRGC firing on a US aircraft, the United States carried out limited and defensive strikes on Iran’s Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. Separately, the IRGC navy claimed to capture a second advanced US unmanned underwater vehicle, the Remus 600, in the Strait of Hormuz.
