US forces have “downed” several Iranian drones targeting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz, the military says.

“Iran launched multiple one-way attack drones in an attempt to strike commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz,” US Central Command (CENTCOM), which oversees operations in the region, posts on X.

CENTCOM insists that the strait “remains open for transit.”


Iran launched multiple one-way attack drones in an attempt to strike commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz.

U.S. forces have downed all of them in recent hours as traffic flow through the strait continues unimpeded. The international trade corridor remains open for transit.
