Iran attacked the commercial vessel
GFS Galaxy off the coast of Oman, resulting in one Indian national missing and
10 rescued, as attributed by U.S. Central Command.
The U.S. responded with strikes on
Iranian targets, leading Iran to launch missile and drone attacks on U.S.
military bases and sites in Jordan, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, and the
United Arab Emirates.
Iran claimed to close the Strait of Hormuz, but U.S. Central Command refuted this, confirming the strait remains open with normal traffic under U.S. protection.
