Tom BilyeuHOST
So you've got the Downey off of Kharg Island.
Tom BilyeuHOST
Uh, you've got the Stark one near Jask.
Tom BilyeuHOST
CENTCOM's phrase for both were they were permanently disabled.
Tom BilyeuHOST
I'm pretty sure one of them sank-
Mario NawfalHOST
So a few things that are happening now.
Mario NawfalHOST
There was explosions from an hour ago in Jask in southern Iran.
Mario NawfalHOST
The reason I haven't mentioned those is I haven't had any indications whether it's just missiles being fired by the Iranians or air defenses being active.
Mario NawfalHOST
I didn't want people to think strikes are ongoing.
Brandon WeichertGUEST
I am right here.
Mario NawfalHOST
It is.
Mario NawfalHOST
I'm getting more reports of now two explosions in Jask, southern Iran.
Mario NawfalHOST
No cause unknown.
Ana KasparianHOST
Because since our last show yesterday, the US actually launched more airstrikes against Iranian oil tankers.
Ana KasparianHOST
And US officials who spoke to Fox News claimed that these strikes took place near Karg Island and near the Iranian port of Jask on the Gulf of Oman.
Ana KasparianHOST
Now, obviously, I believe the United States is under the impression that by striking oil tankers, they are weakening Iran further economically speaking.
Ana KasparianHOST
And by squeezing Iran economically, the Trump administration is under the impression that they will bring the Iranian regime as they call it to their knees.
speaker_1HOST
No American personnel were harmed.
speaker_1HOST
In response to all that, the United States launched strikes Tuesday night that the Iran state television said targeted Israeli oil tankers near the port of Jask and near Karg Island.
speaker_1HOST
State TV said the U.S. military attacked a second tanker near the waters off Jask.
speaker_1HOST
It said crews of both vessels were being evacuated.
speaker_1HOST
Separately, State TV reported another tanker was attacked on Karg Island, Anchorage area.
Mario NawfalHOST
Um, but just a few minutes ago, an Iranian attack, the Americans, um, conducted airstrikes near Jisk- Jisk, not, not Sirik.
Mario NawfalHOST
I think it's Jisk Island, Jask- not Jask, maybe Sirik, and, uh, Kharg Island.
Mario NawfalHOST
So Kharg, Jask, yeah.
Brandon WeichertHOST
Yeah.
Mario NawfalHOST
Jask and Kharg Island.
Brandon WeichertHOST
Yeah.
Mario NawfalHOST
So most likely they seem oil tankers, even though Fox News said it's oil tankers and other targets.
Mario NawfalHOST
Today, the Iranians...
Mario NawfalHOST
So the US responded by firing at oil tankers near Jask and, uh, Kharg Island.
Malcolm NanceGUEST
Kharg.
Malcolm NanceGUEST
Mm-hmm.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The US says both ships dodged the missiles and nobody was hurt.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Then America hit back hard, striking three Iranian oil tankers, one sank in the Gulf of Oman, the other two were disabled near Karg Island, Iran's main oil export hub and near the port of Jask.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Iran answered by saying it targeted three tankers it claims were using unauthorized routes through the Strait of Hormuz, plus a few U.S.-linked vessels.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And today, Golubov called Iran's earlier strikes on U.S. bases just the beginning.
Borzou DaragahiHOST
Thankfully, the one that it destroyed was empty, so it didn't create an ecological crisis.
Borzou DaragahiHOST
It also damaged a couple more that were apparently loaded with oil, and these were in ports that were outside of the Persian Gulf, one in Jask, I think one near Chabahar, another in the Persian Gulf near And what did Iran do in response? Iran responded with what was the most ferocious barrage of missiles that it has launched in months.
Borzou DaragahiHOST
And not only did these missiles all come from different parts of Iran, they were launched in coordination near simultaneously in, I think, three waves is the reporting that I saw.
Borzou DaragahiHOST
And there's footage of these barrages of missiles coming in and hitting the U.S. base.
Adam LucenteHOST
US Central Command said earlier that it destroyed five Iranian oil tankers overnight in response to the IRGC targeting a US Navy warship in the past two days, releasing footage of ships that were on fire.
Adam LucenteHOST
Iranian media reported that the blasts occurred near Harg Island and near the southeast port city of Jask.
Adam LucenteHOST
CENTCOM also denied that Iran had hit two US vessels.
Adam LucenteHOST
Reuters reported that the night's events constituted the biggest attack on shipping since the war began.
Malcolm NanceHOST
I want you to sink five tankers.
Malcolm NanceHOST
The United States struck five tankers, one off of Karg Island, two off of Jask, and two others in Iranian waters.
Malcolm NanceHOST
They sank these tankers.
Malcolm NanceHOST
Well, One and a half hours later, Iran made it eminently clear that they weren't taking this lying down.
