It says the navy had identified US destroyers in the Strait of Hormuz and fired multiple warning shots, adding, “following the Zionist American destroyers’ disregard for the initial warning, the Navy issued a warning shot by firing cruise missiles, rockets, and combat drones around the aggressor enemy vessels.”
The US military said two guided-missile destroyers had entered the Gulf and that they had not been hit.
