The US military launched another set of strikes in Iran Saturday night, U.S. Central Command said in a statement. The US strikes came after Iranian forces attacked M/V GFS Galaxy, a Cyprus-flagged container ship transiting the Strait of Hormuz, CENTCOM said.
A civilian crew member is missing and the vessel is unable to continue the journey due to an onboard fire and significant engineroom damage, CENTCOM said. Iran says the ship was moving through the strait in an ‘unapproved route’ and was hit by a ‘warning shot’.
