Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has claimed that its ballistic missiles have struck the US aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, rendering it non-operational and forcing it to retreat from the Gulf waters. Washington has, however, denied the claim, saying the American aircraft carrier “continues to support Operation Epic Fury”.
US media reported that an Iranian vessel sailed too close to the aircraft carrier, and the American forces fired at it. But it remains unclear whether the ship was hit.
