Iran Abraham Lincoln carrier missile attack claim has increased tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran says it targeted a US aircraft carrier with missiles and drones.
According to media reports, Iran’s military group, the Revolutionary Guard, claimed it carried out the Iran Abraham Lincoln carrier missile attack using ballistic missiles and drones.
Iranian media said the action was a response to recent attacks by the United States and Israel. Some reports stated that Iran fired four ballistic missiles during the operation.
However, US officials rejected the Iran Abraham Lincoln carrier missile attack claim. They said the aircraft carrier was not hit and suffered no damage.
American authorities also said the missiles did not come close to the ship. The carrier is continuing its military operations as usual in the region.
The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the most sensitive waterways in the world. Any military incident in the area can quickly increase tensions between regional and global powers.
