5月4日，荷姆茲海峽傳出重大衝突消息！

伊朗陸軍公共關係部對外宣布，當日伊朗海軍於賈斯克附近海域，向一艘試圖闖入荷姆茲海峽的美國軍艦發射兩枚導彈並成功命中目標。

伊朗表示，該軍艦無視警告、違反航道安全規範，遭攻擊後已失去航行能力，被迫返航。

然而幾乎同一時間，美國高層官員透過媒體否認有任何艦艇遭到伊朗導彈擊中。

Tensions flared sharply in the Strait of Hormuz on May 4.

The Public Relations Department of the Iranian Army announced that the Iranian Navy fired two missiles at a U.S. warship attempting to enter the Strait of Hormuz near Jask, scoring direct hits on the vessel.

Iran stated the warship ignored warnings and violated maritime safety regulations, becoming disabled after the strike and forced to turn back.

Almost immediately afterward, senior U.S. officials denied through media reports that any U.S. vessel had been hit by Iranian missiles.
