US Navy releases video of 'provocative' Iran rocket fire - Chicago Tribune
The Chicago Tribune reports: "The U.S. Navy on Saturday released footage it said showed Iranian
Revolutionary Guard vessels firing rockets near warships and commercial
traffic in the strategic Strait of Hormuz late last month, a move
raising tensions between the two nations despite the recent nuclear
deal. [...]
The 45 seconds of black-and-white Dec. 26 footage, which the Navy said
was shot from a Seahawk helicopter, shows what appears to be an oil
tanker passing by. A flash appears on the left side of the video and
after zooming in, it shows small boats the Navy said were Iranian firing
rockets.
The Navy has said the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier, the USS
Bulkeley destroyer and a French frigate were nearby at the time, as well
as commercial vessels."
