The US Central Command (CENTCOM) reported that Iran launched several drones at commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

This is stated in a CENTCOM post on the social media platform X.

"Iran launched multiple one-way attack drones in an attempt to strike commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. forces have downed all of them in recent hours as traffic flow through the strait continues unimpeded," the US Central Command emphasized.

CENTCOM also clarified that traffic through the strait continues, and the international trade corridor remains open for transit.
