Iran attacks US carriers and tankers in Strait of Hormuz in retaliation

Iran has launched attacks on US aircraft carriers and tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, explicitly framed as retaliation for US aggression against three Iranian vessels on Saturday. The scale and success of the attacks are unverified, but the targeting of carriers and tankers in a critical chokepoint marks a significant escalation. This threatens global oil transit and risks broader US-Iran conflict.
