An Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) gunboat attacked the Liberian-flagged, Greek-owned cargo vessel Epaminondas in the Strait of Hormuz. The vessel sustained heavy damage to its bridge and navigation systems after being fired upon without prior warning. The attack is the latest in a series of escalations against commercial shipping in the strategic waterway, which remains a critical chokepoint for global oil shipments. The incident follows President Donald Trump's recent extension of a ceasefire in the region, which has failed to halt hostilities.
