—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 BREAKING: We now know what the target of yesterday’s launches was; Iran targeted a U.S. aircraft carrier with anti-ship ballistic missiles for the first time

Until now, Iran had refrained from using this high-end weapon (likely Khalije Fars missile) due to fear it would provoke a massive American retaliation.

No hits on the carrier were recorded, but CENTCOM admitted that the USS George Washington was forced to perform evasive maneuvers.

In response to this attack, the U.S. Navy disabled three Iranian oil tankers in the Persian Gulf & Gulf of Oman.
