🚨 BREAKING: U.S. STRIKES IRAN’S DRONE CARRIER IN MAJOR NAVAL BLOW In a dramatic escalation of the war, U.S. Central Command has released infrared footage showing precision strikes on IRIS Shahid Bagheri, Iran’s flagship drone carrier. The vessel — a converted container ship designed to launch swarms of attack drones — was set ablaze during the strike, according to CENTCOM commanders. The Shahid Bagheri, commissioned in 2025, features a roughly 180-meter flight deck for UAV operations and was intended to extend Iran’s drone warfare capability far beyond its coastline. U.S. officials say the attack is part of the broader campaign targeting Iran’s naval forces and missile infrastructure under Operation Epic Fury. CENTCOM commander Adm. Brad Cooper said the ship — roughly the size of a World War II–era aircraft carrier — was struck and “is now on fire.” The strike marks one of the largest blows yet to Iran’s maritime capabilities, as U.S. forces continue operations aimed at dismantling Tehran’s naval and drone warfare capacity.
