A container ship was fired upon near the coast of Oman, causing heavy damage to its bridge, according to UK Maritime Trade Operations.
The agency said the vessel was approached by a boat linked to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps about 15 nautical miles northeast of Oman.
Tasnim News Agency said Iran’s military had enforced “maritime law” on a vessel that ignored repeated warnings.
Officials said the decision to pre-record the event was made in light of the ongoing ceasefire and the broader security situation, with attendance limited to the soldiers’ families.
Following the report of the attack, the IRGC issued a statement to Iranian state news, declaring that they are prepared to confront any new aggression.
