US denies Iranian claim that it hit American warship trying to enter Strait of Hormuz | BBC News

The U.S. military has rejected an assertion by Iranian state media claiming that an American warship was struck while attempting to enter the Strait of Hormuz. The denial comes amid heightened tensions in the region, following President Donald Trump’s announcement that the United States would assist ships trapped in the waterway. Since the conflict between the U.S. and Iran escalated in February, around 2,000 vessels carrying approximately 20,000 seafarers have been unable to pass through the strategic strait.
