IRGC Claims Anti-Ship Missile Strike on Vessel in Strait of Hormuz
💥 HORMUZ — An IRGC missile strike in the strait itself changes the geometry. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Previous IRGC attacks clustered near Bandar Abbas or open Gulf — a missile strike inside the strait narrows the chokepoint threat to its most critical node. With 4 transits daily already versus 85 baseline, one struck vessel can physically block passage. Nine days before the US post-midterm window, this tests CENTCOM's rules of engagement directly.
