Pasukan AS melumpuhkan kapal tanker Iran di Selat Hormuz

Pasukan militer AS menyerang dua kapal tanker minyak Iran pada hari Jumat di Selat Hormuz setelah terlibat baku tembak dengan pasukan Iran semalam. Serangan tersebut terjadi di tengah upaya penegakan blokade dan menyusul laporan serangan rudal serta pesawat nirawak Iran terhadap Uni Emirat Arab.

Militer AS menyatakan pasukannya melumpuhkan kapal-kapal tanker yang berupaya menembus blokade Amerika terhadap pelabuhan-pelabuhan Iran. Beberapa jam sebelumnya, pasukan AS menggagalkan serangan terhadap tiga kapal Angkatan Laut dan menyerang fasilitas militer Iran di selat tersebut, tanpa ada kapal Amerika yang terkena serangan. Video yang dirilis oleh Pentagon memperlihatkan jet tempur menyasar cerobong asap kapal-kapal tersebut.
