US denies Iranian claim it fired at American warships: ‘Would be gross ceasefire violation’

The US military rejects Iran’s claim that it fired warning shots at American warships, saying it would have been a serious breach of the fragile ceasefire between the two countries.

“Iranian forces did NOT attack or fire at US Navy warships. Doing so would be a gross violation of the ceasefire,” US Central Command, which oversees American forces in the Middle East, says in a post on X.
