IRGC Releases Footage of Alleged Strike on US Naval Vessels

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) released footage on Thursday that it said showed missiles being fired at “US naval vessels in the area east of the Strait of Hormuz.”

Screengrab of video

The video shows an IRGC member putting stickers on missiles with the phrases: “And He sent against them birds in flocks” and “In memory of the martyred students of Minab” – referencing the deadly girls’ school strike at the start of the war – alongside images of slain Iranian soldiers.

The time and location of the footage could not be independently verified.

Iran Says Attack Responded to Ceasefire Violations

Earlier, Iran’s joint command, the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, announced that Iranian armed forces had targeted US naval vessels in the eastern section of the Strait of Hormuz.

It said the attack came in response to what it described as US violations of the ceasefire, including strikes on two Iranian oil tankers and a ship, as well as airstrikes targeting the coasts of Bandar Khamir, Sirik, and Qeshm Island.

US Confirms Strikes on Iranian Military Facilities

The US military said on Thursday that it had targeted Iranian military facilities allegedly involved in attacks on its own forces, including missile and drone launch sites, command-and-control centres, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance facilities.

US President Donald Trump said the ceasefire with Iran remained in effect, calling his side’s strikes a ‘love tap’. It came amid reports that an agreement between the US and Iran could be close.
