US forces destroyed three Iranian oil tankers after ballistic missiles targeted two Navy warships in the Gulf, escalating regional tensions.
Iran’s ruling government still hasn’t gotten the message that President Donald Trump is committed to squeezing them literally to death if they continue to balk at making a peace deal that includes never building a nuclear weapon.
U.S. Central Command announced Saturday that American forces struck three Iranian crude oil tankers after Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched ballistic missiles toward two U.S. Navy warships operating in regional waters.
“A U.S. aircraft carrier and guided-missile destroyer successfully evaded multiple unprovoked Iranian attacks. No American personnel were harmed,” CENTCOM said in a statement.
