Iran said it issued a direct warning to a US military ship near the Strait of Hormuz. State television reported the vessel was told it could face an attack within 30 minutes if it entered Iranian-controlled waters. A senior Iranian military official said the ship turned back after the warning. The move followed remarks by US President Donald Trump, who said the US was “starting the process of clearing out” the Strait of Hormuz for global shipping. He also said Iran’s military had been weakened. Iran has not shared details of the ship. Shipping in the strait remains limited due to ongoing tensions. (PC: X)
