US Strikes Iranian Tankers After More Missile Attacks on Navy Warship

The United States struck multiple Iranian oil tankers on Tuesday, saying the attacks were retaliation for new Iranian missile strikes on a Navy ship. The strikes targeted vessels in the Persian Gulf, according to U.S. officials, who said the operation was aimed at degrading Iran's ability to export oil and fund its military activities. The missile attacks on the Navy ship, which occurred earlier in the day, caused no casualties but prompted the U.S. response.
