Iran Claims Missile Strikes on US Warship and Oil Tanker

The transcript begins with a report on US claims of striking nearly 2,000 targets in Iran, destroying air defense systems and hundreds of drones, focusing on military infrastructure.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced its own missile attack on a US destroyer in the Indian Ocean, refuting President Trump's assertion of crippling Iran's navy.

The IRGC detailed the attack, specifying the use of 380 and Talyeh missiles, and stated the destroyer was hit while refueling from a US tanker, causing fires on both vessels.

The IRGC's operation, codenamed 'True Promise 4', is framed as retaliation for Israeli and US actions, targeting sensitive and strategic sites, as well as US interests in the region.

US Central Command (CENTCOM) reported destroying over 1,700 Iranian targets, including naval assets, air defense systems, and command centers, during recent engagements.
