According to the agency, investigations into these incidents are still ongoing. It is not yet known whether the strikes caused material damage or loss of life.
Since the outbreak of the conflict between Iran and the United States at the end of February, authorities in Tehran have declared that they control the Strait of Hormuz and have repeatedly struck ships attempting to pass through it without their authorization.
On the other hand, Washington has imposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports in response to Tehran’s decision to close this strategic maritime route.
