In a post on X, Centcom says “No US Navy ships have been struck”. It adds: “U.S. forces are supporting Project Freedom and enforcing the naval blockade on Iranian ports.”

Iran had warned US forces on Monday not to enter the strategic waterway after President Donald Trump said the United States would “guide out” ships stranded in the Gulf by the US-Israeli ​war ​on Iran.

US President Donald Trump has launched Project Freedom, a naval mission to escort stranded ships out of the Strait of Hormuz starting within hours, which top Iranian lawmaker Ebrahim Azizi says would violate the ceasefire if carried out. Iran’s Foreign Ministry is reviewing Washington’s response to its 14-point peace proposal that Trump called “unacceptable,” while Israel continues bombing Lebanon, wounding five medics, and expanding control in Gaza with a new “Orange Line.”
