Eight U.S. Marines Attacked in Strait of Hormuz: Report
Original: Eight U.S. Marines Attacked in Strait of Hormuz Two Weeks Ago: Report
Eight U.S. Marines were attacked in the Strait of Hormuz roughly two weeks before the report emerged, according to Military.com. Details of the incident, including who carried out the attack and whether there were injuries, have not been disclosed. The report has drawn attention because the Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world's most sensitive waterways amid ongoing tensions between the United States and Iran.
Why now: The belated reporting of an attack on American troops in a strategic Gulf waterway comes amid heightened US-Iran tensions.
