IRGC claims attack on US unmanned vessel as projectiles hit two ships off Oman

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says it attacked or destroyed a US unmanned vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, a major international shipping route.

The claim was reported by Al Jazeera Global News as tensions continue amid the conflict involving Iran and the United States. The supplied material does not independently verify the IRGC’s account.

Separately, the UK Maritime Trade Operations office said projectiles hit two ships off Oman. It did not provide, in the supplied reporting, the identities of the vessels or details of their condition or cargoes.

The timing, precise locations and causes of the reported projectile strikes remain unclear. There was also no confirmation in the source material of damage, sinking or casualties.

The reports place maritime traffic in and around the Strait of Hormuz under renewed security pressure, but the available information does not establish the full sequence of events.
