U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has revealed U.S. forces have struck and destroyed all 11 Iranian naval vessels operating in the Gulf of Oman.
On Monday, CENTCOM posted an unclassified video stating that two days ago, prior to the implementation of Operation Epic Fury, Iranians had 11 ships stationed in the Gulf of Oman. However, as of Monday, none remain.
Since the launch of Operation Epic Fury on Saturday, the U.S. military — under CENTCOM — has conducted extensive strikes across Iran.
According to a fact sheet released by CENTCOM on Monday, U.S. forces have struck more than 1,250 targets in the first 48 hours of the operation.
These targets have included a wide range of high-priority Iranian military assets, such as:
- Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) headquarters and command-and-control centers.
- Ballistic missile production and launch sites.
- Naval vessels, submarines, and anti-ship missile facilities.
- Air defense systems.
- Communications infrastructure.
The strikes are part of a broader effort to dismantle capabilities that pose imminent threats to U.S. forces, allies, and international maritime navigation. Operations remain ongoing, with additional assets, including B-2 stealth bombers, F-35 fighters, MQ-9 drones, and naval platforms, continuing to support the campaign.
