Tension in the Gulf: Iran claims it attacked an Israeli-owned ship

Throughout the day (June 2, 2026), several Telegram channels affiliated with Iranian government elements reported an attack on a ship linked to Israel in the Sea of Oman. According to Akharin Khabar, which is identified with Tehran's official narrative, this is a retaliatory action after the "US military" attacked the Iranian ship "Lian Star."

According to Akharin Khabar, the Revolutionary Guards launched a cruise missile at the ship "msc. sariska," claiming it is owned by the "American-Zionist enemy." The channel attached photos of the damaged ship as documentation of the incident.

The report received widespread resonance in other Iranian channels, including Khabar Fouri | US War News, IRGC News Channel 🏴, Khabar Fouri News | War News | US Attack, and Pezeshkian Supporters. All these channels uploaded photos of the damaged ship, presenting the event as an Iranian operational success in the naval campaign.

This report comes from sources clearly identified with the Iranian government and the Revolutionary Guards, which take a militant line of propaganda against the US and Israel. As of now, no official confirmation regarding the circumstances of the incident or the extent of the damage has been received from international sources or from Israel.
