—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iran’s Khatam Al-Anbiyaa Central Headquarters:

– The United States, in violation of the ceasefire, targeted an Iranian oil tanker moving from the coastal waters of Iran in the Jask region towards the Strait of Hormuz, as well as another vessel entering the Strait of Hormuz, off the coast of Fujairah.

– Simultaneously, they launched airstrikes on civilian areas in cooperation with some regional countries in the coastal areas of Bandar Abbas, Sirik, and Qeshm Island.

– The armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran immediately retaliated by attacking U.S. naval vessels in the east of the Strait of Hormuz and south of Chabahar port, inflicting damage upon them.

– Criminal and aggressive America and its supporting countries should know that the Islamic Republic of Iran, as in the past, will powerfully and without the slightest hesitation respond decisively to any aggression.

⚡️⚡️🇮🇷🇺🇸 Tasnim News Agency, citing a military source says that Iranian naval attacks on American destroyers in the Sea of Oman are ongoing.

Re: The Iran War By US & Israel Megathread by Ricchmoen: 10:39pm On May 07

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 U.S. Central Command:

‘U.S. forces intercepted unprovoked Iranian attacks and responded with self-defense strikes as U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyers transited the Strait of Hormuz to the Gulf of Oman, May 7.

Iranian forces launched multiple missiles, drones and small boats as USS Truxtun (DDG 103), USS Rafael Peralta (DDG 115), and USS Mason (DDG 87) transited the international sea passage. No U.S. assets were struck.

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) eliminated inbound threats and targeted Iranian military facilities responsible for attacking U.S. forces including missile and drone launch sites; command and control locations; and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance nodes.’

Re: The Iran War By US & Israel Megathread by Ricchmoen: 11:01pm On May 07

⚡️⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇷 CBS reports that Iranian attack boats approached so closely to US ships that they were forced to open fire from their deck weaponry to repel them.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: U.S. destroyers have withdrawn from the Strait of Hormuz

Re: The Iran War By US & Israel Megathread by Ricchmoen: 11:42pm On May 07

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump: ‘The ceasefire is still ongoing, it’s being implemented’

Re: The Iran War By US & Israel Megathread by Ricchmoen: 11:54pm On May 07

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump on Truth Social:

‘Three World Class American Destroyers just transited, very successfully, out of the Strait of Hormuz, under fire. There was no damage done to the three Destroyers, but great damage done to the Iranian attackers.

They were completely destroyed along with numerous small boats, which are being used to take the place of their fully decapitated Navy.
These boats went to the bottom of the Sea, quickly and efficiently.

Missiles were shot at our Destroyers, and were easily knocked down. Likewise, drones came, and were incinerated while in the air. They dropped ever so beautifully down to the Ocean, very much like a butterfly dropping to its grave!

A normal Country would have allowed these Destroyers to pass, but Iran is not a normal Country. They are led by LUNATICS, and if they had the chance to use a Nuclear Weapon, they would do it, without question.

But they'll never have that opportunity and, just like we knocked them out again today, we'll knock them out a lot harder, and a lot more violently, in the future, if they don't get their Deal signed, FAST! Our three Destroyers, with their wonderful Crews, will now rejoin our Naval Blockade, which is truly a "Wall of Steel."

NASA’s FIRMS satellite fire detection system registered multiple fires in the Strait of Hormuz Thursday night, according to OSINT analyst OSINTtechnical, with thermal data showing a drifting fire pattern — consistent with a burning vessel moving.

The detections follow tonight’s exchange of fire between U.S. and Iranian forces in the strait, in which Iran claimed to have struck and damaged three U.S. destroyers. The U.S. claimed none of its vessels were struck.

🇮🇷🇺🇸| BREAKING: Fars reports sporadic clashes in the Strait of Hormoz between Iran-US forces

For the past hour, sporadic clashes took place between Iran’s armed forces and US Navy vessels.

This comes after CENTCOM “disabled” 2 empty VLCC tankers returning to Iran.

The earlier reports where Sirik locals heard explosions are therefore related to this event.

The war with Iran is not over because there is still enriched uranium that has to be taken out of Iran.

There are still enrichment sites that need to be dismantled. There are still proxies that Iran supports and ballistic missiles that they want to produce.

We will get Iran’s enriched uranium at some point, whenever we want.

⚡️🇱🇧 Bint Jbeil has fully fallen to the IDF.

The entire city has now been considered depopulated, nothing remains of its building or civilians.

Armed resistance in the city limits itself is considered negligible, only attacks from the Northern direction from Hezbollah towards the IDF remains.
