Iran Claims Attack on US Ship in Strait of Hormuz; US Denies

Iran announced an attack on a US ship in the Strait of Hormuz, but the Trump administration dismissed it as a 'total lie.' The claim is unverified and contradicts US reports, indicating a potential escalation or disinformation. This matters because the Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint for global oil transit, and any real attack would have significant market and geopolitical implications.
