Claims on youtube that Iran has fired warning shots (2x balistic cruise missiles). No information about any outcomes yet.

Nobody seems to know anyhting, indeed:

Iran denies that 2 US ships have passed but claim to have fired 2 missiles on US ships. US claims to have passed 2 ships, but deny any missiles were fired by Iran.

From the news I’ve been able to find:

US - The Strait is now open! We will escort any civilian ship not related to Iran so they can traverse safely!

Iran - Yeah, the US tried to escort a ship, we have hit their military ships as a warning.

US - Iran lies! No ship was hit! We will keep shouting instructions from a safe distance to any civilian ship trying to traverse the Strait, like we promised earlier!

You only need like a thousand more battleships and we can effectively do this.
