US military strikes Iranian oil tankers near Strait of Hormuz

The U.S. Central Command has executed strikes against Iranian targets near the Strait of Hormuz, including three commercial crude oil tankers, following Iranian ballistic missile launches at two American warships and sea-mining attempts. Military officials confirmed that all detected sea mines in the international shipping lane have been neutralized.

The escalation follows warnings from U.S. President Donald Trump, who threatened severe retaliation against Iranian electrical grids and critical infrastructure if attacks on maritime traffic persist. Commenting on the military actions, Trump stated that "very little of Iran will be left" if Tehran continues its attacks.

Strategic analysts note that the confrontation reflects a broader evolution toward targeting energy supply networks and commercial fleets, driven by fifth-generation warfare tactics and drone technology.
