ALBAWABA - The U.S. military carried out strikes on Iran’s Qeshm Port and Bandar Abbas, Fox News reports, citing a senior American official.

Iranian state TV reported that Tehran fired missiles at U.S. forces on Thursday after what it described as an attack on an Iranian tanker.

"Following the attack by the US military on an Iranian tanker, the enemy units in the Strait of Hormuz came under Iranian missile fire and were forced to flee after suffering damage," IRIB said, citing a military officer.
