A U.S. Navy jet fired on an Iranian tanker attempting to evade the blockade in the Gulf of Oman.
- The F/A-18 Super Hornet from the USS Abraham Lincoln disabled the tanker's rudder with 20mm cannon fire. - The M/T Hasna ignored repeated warnings before the military action.
- The U.S. blockade remains in effect as negotiations continue over the Strait of Hormuz.
The incident underscores ongoing tensions in the region.
