Iranian navy warned U.S. destroyer away from Iranian waters in the Gulf of Oman.

Iranian state media reported that Iranian navy helicopters warned a U.S. destroyer, the USS Fitzgerald, to avoid approaching Iranian waters in the Gulf of Oman. The Iranian helicopter issued a warning, and despite the U.S. vessel reportedly threatening the helicopter, the destroyer ultimately changed its course southward. The U.S. Navy has not yet commented on the incident, which comes amid heightened tensions following recent U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.
