Sea of Oman showdown: Did Qadir missiles and Iran's new drones force US warships into retreat?

Iran claims its navy forced multiple U.S. warships to withdraw from the Sea of Oman after warning shots involving Qadir missiles and Shahid Dana drones. According to Iranian military statements, the warning targeted U.S. destroyers operating near Iranian waters and formed part of Tehran’s broader effort to counter what it describes as foreign military pressure in the region. Iranian officials also warned that longer-range missile systems could be employed if tensions escalate further. The United States has not publicly confirmed Iran’s claims regarding the reported movements of its naval vessels.
