Iran has claimed that it launched a cruise missile towards the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier, according to Iranian state television. However, there is no immediate confirmation or response from US officials.
Iranian Army public relations said coastal cruise missiles were fired in the direction of the US aircraft carrier. The claim, however, remains unverified independently.
The development comes after the Iranian Navy issued a direct warning to the United States, saying that the USS Abraham Lincoln is under close surveillance and could be targeted if it approaches Iranian territory.
