The United States Central Command (CENTCOM) stated that recent attacks on Iran-backed forces were entirely self-defensive actions. In a statement issued from its headquarters in Tampa, Florida, CENTCOM said the measures were taken to protect US interests amid rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. The command’s position aligns with recent remarks from senior Washington officials.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said earlier this week that the United States would take necessary steps in the interest of self-defense. The US President also echoed this stance on the social media platform Truth Social, asserting that American forces were performing their duties successfully in the Strait of Hormuz. He blamed Iran for the escalating situation and said the US was compelled to respond to protect its interests.
Disagreement has emerged between the two countries over the extent of damage from the clashes. Iran claimed that a US ship was damaged, but Washington denied the allegation, stating that no American vessel had been harmed.
