# The US Central Command says the military destroyed five Iranian tankers after Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps twice attempted to strike an American warship with ballistic missiles over the past two days. US forces struck four crude oil carriers in the Gulf of Oman and one near Kharg Island in the Persian Gulf. Iran retaliated by launching missiles at an American base in Jordan. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio warns that more Iranian oil tankers will be sunk if attacks on warships continue:
