Cargo ship damaged by U.S. forces off Iran
The 'Lian Star, while allegedly trying to breach the blockade and approaching an Iranian port near the Strait of Hrmuz, was stopped by the U.S. on May 29, 2026. US forces repeatedly warned the vessel and informed its crew that it was violating the blockade. To halt the vessel, which ignored the warnings during the night, more than 20 warning shots were fired first. Subsequently, a combat aircraft fired a AGM-114 Hellfire missile into the ship's engine room, rendering it inoperable. The ship remained adrift in the Gulf of Oman. However, the US forces have not boarded it. On June 1, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy attacked the container m/v 'MSC Sariska V', which it described as being affiliated with the United States and Israel, with a cruise missile in a reciprocal operation following the US attack.
