Iran’s armed forces have claimed responsibility for an attack on a US-owned oil tanker near the coast of Kuwait, according to a report by Al Jazeera. The announcement was made on Friday through Iran’s state radio, which cited the country’s wartime military command, Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters, as the source of the information. The report stated that the vessel was hit and caught fire following the strike.

As of now, no detailed information has been released regarding the extent of the damage or any possible casualties resulting from the incident. The report did not include any official confirmation or response from other parties involved.

The incident adds to a series of recent claims by Iran involving attacks on US-linked facilities in the region, though independent verification of these claims remains unavailable.
