The U.S. military strikes against the Iranian navy have intensified amid the ongoing hostilities with Tehran.
According to Adm. Brad Cooper, commander of U.S. Central Command (Centcom), over 30 of Iranian warships have been sunk or destroyed.
The development comes as geopolitical tensions soar, with the United States and Israel intensifying war on Iran, hitting targets inside the country. Iran, on the other hand, has continued to retaliate by targeting US interests in the region.
