谁的话更可信, 中央司令部还是伊朗?
The United States military said Monday that two US-flagged merchant ships had successfully transited the Strait of Hormuz after it launched a new plan to restore traffic by guiding trapped ships through the blocked waterway, escalating the standoff with Iran.
The US Central Command said the two US-flagged ships were “safely headed on their journey” after transiting the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has effectively closed since the US and Israel launched the war in late February. It said Navy guided-missile destroyers in the Persian Gulf were helping to restore traffic.
Its statement on X said that US destroyers had also transited the strait. It did not say when the Navy ships arrived or when the merchant vessels departed.
Iran claimed, meanwhile, that it had fired two missiles at a US Navy vessel as it attempted to transit through the strait.
The US military denied the claim by the Fars news agency that one of its Navy ships was hit by Iranian missiles in the Strait of Hormuz, after the outlet reported a US vessel was “targeted in a missile attack after ignoring a warning from the naval forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran.”
“No US Navy ships have been struck,” US Central Command said. “US forces are supporting Project Freedom and enforcing the naval blockade on Iranian ports.”
