Iran's 'pre-emptive strike' on Didamar Island: Trump holds fire

Published on Nov 10, 2026 03:30 pm IST

Iran has reportedly struck Oman’s Didamar Island, targeting radar, communications and navigation infrastructure near the Strait of Hormuz. An IRGC-linked account claimed the systems helped vessels, including US-escorted ships, navigate the southern shipping corridor and were destroyed in the operation. Reuters separately reported an Iranian Revolutionary Guards Navy official confirming that navigation aids in the southern Strait had been destroyed, but did not independently establish who was responsible. The reported strike comes as Donald Trump holds off on fresh attacks following calls for restraint from Gulf leaders. Is Tehran expanding the battlefield while Washington weighs its next move?
