Iran has warned that a US warship would be attacked within 30 minutes if it passed through the Strait of Hormuz, Iranian state television reported.
According to a senior Iranian military official, the ship withdrew after this warning. Iranian authorities did not provide further details on the ship's specific actions or its location.
Earlier, American media outlet Axios reported that several United States Navy ships had crossed the strait in an operation that was not coordinated with Iran.
Former President Donald Trump appeared to confirm this information, stating that the US military had launched operations to "clean up" the strait.
However, Iranian authorities have denied that any American ship has passed through that area, highlighting inconsistencies between the parties' statements.
