[U.S.-Iran mutual attacks on oil tankers, the Iranian military said it may launch a larger attack on the United States] September 6, local time on the 5th, the U.S.-Iran military conflict continued. The U.S. military said it attacked three Iranian oil tankers that day. Subsequently, Iran stated that "out of desperation due to the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, the US military attacked three Iranian oil tankers and caused losses." In response, Iran attacked multiple oil tankers and U.S. ships and warned ships in the Persian Gulf to avoid illegal waterways. The Khatam Anbia Central Command of the Iranian Armed Forces issued a warning that if the United States continues its unsafe behavior, harasses Iranian ships, and continues to block Iran, the Iranian Armed Forces will carry out more severe strikes against U.S. warships in the area and may expand the scope of the strikes. The latest assessment report released by the U.S. intelligence agency shows that more than six months after the U.S. launched military operations against Iran, Iran has become "more confident" in its ability to strike U.S. military targets in the Middle East. At the same time, it seems determined to continue confronting the United States until at least the midterm elections for the U.S. Congress in November. (CCTV News)
