Live: Iran Claims Missiles Forced US Navy Retreat In Strait Of Hormuz Standoff


A dramatic escalation in the Strait of Hormuz has brought the U.S. and Iran dangerously close to direct conflict. Iranian sources claim that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps locked multiple cruise missiles onto U.S. Navy destroyers, allegedly forcing them to retreat within minutes to avoid a potential strike.

While these claims remain unverified, the incident highlights the fragile balance in one of the world’s most critical maritime chokepoints. Reports suggest the timing may have been linked to parallel diplomatic efforts in Islamabad, raising questions about whether military pressure was used to influence ongoing negotiations. The situation underscores the risk of rapid escalation in an already volatile region.
