The United States attacked Iranian oil tankers, according to news reports. This American military action against Iranian targets marked an escalation in tensions between the two countries.

In response, Iran attacked American warships and bases located in Jordan. The Iranian attack was a direct retaliation to the previous American military action against its oil tankers.

The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed responsibility for the attack and stated that it was aimed at "punishing the aggressor." This statement was interpreted as an implicit threat of further retaliation should American attacks continue.
