According to the Pentagon, five Iranian boats made aggressive maneuvers and showed hostile intent towards three U.S. Navy ships at the weekend in the Strait of Hormuz, a major oil shipping route in the Gulf.
Vice Adm. Kevin Cosgriff, the commander of the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet which is responsible for operations in the Gulf, said the Iranian boats moved aggressively towards the U.S. ships and their actions were "unduly provocative."
