TEHRAN: The Iranian Navy delivered several missile strikes on the US aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, which sustained heavy damage before retreating, a spokesman for the Islamic Republic’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters reported.
"USS Abraham Lincoln was hit by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy and rendered non-operational," Iran’s public broadcaster quoted him as saying. Iran’s IRGC said the US vessel had left the Persian Gulf and was fleeing back to the United States.
On February 28, the United States and Israel launched a military operation against Iran. Major Iranian cities, including Tehran, were struck. The White House justified the attack by citing alleged missile and nuclear threats from Iran. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and some other key Iranian leaders were killed in the joint US-Israeli attack. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced a retaliatory operation, targeting sites in Israel. US military bases in Bahrain, Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, the Saudi Arabia, Syria, and the UAE were also hit.
