Hegseth threatened to destroy all Iranian oil tankers when attacking American ships

The United States could destroy all Iranian oil tankers in the event of new attacks on American ships. This warning was made by Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth on the social network X.

“It’s simple: if Iran shoots at American ships, we will destroy (and sink) their oil tankers,” Hegseth threatened.

The Pentagon chief also called the Iranian fleet of oil tankers defenseless. According to him, the Islamic Republic “has neither a navy nor an air force.” “Our planes, ships and submarines can attack all tankers,” he said.
