A major U.S.-Iran confrontation has erupted in the Strait of Hormuz after the U.S. military said Iran’s Revolutionary Guards attacked the Cyprus-flagged container ship M/V GFS Galaxy. According to CENTCOM, the vessel suffered serious engine-room damage, caught fire and was left unable to continue, with one civilian crew member reported missing. Iranian authorities offered a different account, claiming the ship used an “unauthorized route.” The Revolutionary Guards then declared the Strait of Hormuz closed until further notice. CENTCOM subsequently announced another round of strikes on Iranian targets, marking the third U.S. military operation against Iran within a week.
