The IRGC Aerospace Force launched the missiles at the two warships, according to a statement published by the state-run IRNA news agency.

The vessels harassed Iranian ships and participated in a maritime blockade before leaving the engagement area after the strikes, the statement said.
The IRGC described an earlier statement by the U.S. military’s Central Command confirming two Navy warships were targeted as an acknowledgment of the operation.
Continued American military action will draw heavier responses from Iranian armed forces, the IRGC warned.
