The United States military launched a strike on an Iranian drone carrier, identified as Shahid Bagheri, as part of its ongoing operations against Iran’s naval capabilities. According to U.S. officials, the vessel—used to deploy reconnaissance and attack drones—was hit and set ablaze during the operation. The strike is aimed at weakening Iran’s ability to conduct drone warfare and project power in regional waters. The attack comes amid escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran, with U.S. forces targeting multiple Iranian military assets in recent days as part of broader efforts to curb Iran’s maritime and drone operations in the Middle East.
