US Central Command released footage of strikes on Iranian Naval vessels that have been threatening shipping boats in the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday, as Trump threatens to obliterate Iran’s infrastructure if they do not stop targeting ships in the waterway.
CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper said in a statement on Thursday that “92% of the large ships in the Iranian Navy have been eliminated,” and US strikes will continue. He further called members of the Iranian Armed Forces to “immediately abandon their post and return home to avoid further risk of unnecessary injury or death.”
