WASHINGTON, March 3 (Xinhua) — The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Tuesday that American forces destroyed 17 Iranian ships, sinking the entire Iranian navy fleet.

"Many of you may remember the shocking and horrific strikes of 2003. The first 24 hours of that operation were nearly twice as large, and we continue to strike Iran around the clock, from the seabed to space and cyberspace," CENTCOM Chief Brad Cooper said in a video posted on social media.

"We're now less than 100 hours into this operation, and we've already hit nearly 2,000 targets with more than 2,000 munitions. We've seriously undermined Iran's air defenses and destroyed hundreds of Iranian ballistic missiles, launchers, and drones," said B. Cooper.

"We also sank the Iranian navy, the entire navy. To date, we have destroyed 17 Iranian ships, including Iran's most capable submarine, which now has a hole in its side," he said.

CENTCOM also reported that Iran has launched more than 500 ballistic missiles and more than 2,000 unmanned aerial vehicles since the start of the US-Israeli strikes. –0–

London, March 4 (Xinhua) – Britain is sending helicopters and a warship to Cyprus. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced this on Tuesday.

"The UK is fully committed to the security of Cyprus and the British military personnel stationed there. We are continuing our defensive operations, and I have just spoken to the President of Cyprus, informing him that we are deploying anti-drone helicopters and that the warship HMS Dragon will be deployed to the region," Starmer wrote on social media.

The British airbase at Akrotiri on the southern coast of Cyprus was attacked by a drone early Monday, base officials and the Cypriot government said.

Base officials reported that personnel had been informed of a "small drone" entering the airfield and that the base was responding to the incident. No injuries were reported, but "minor damage" was caused.

The strike came shortly after Starmer announced he would allow the US to use British military bases to "destroy Iranian missiles where they are deployed."

Local media reported that the surveillance plane circled southern Cyprus for about three hours early Monday morning and remained airborne as of 04:00 local time.

NEW YORK, March 3 (Xinhua) — US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the US Navy will begin escorting tankers through the Strait of Hormuz if necessary.

"If necessary, the US Navy will begin escorting tankers through the Strait of Hormuz as soon as possible," he said in a social media post.

He said he had ordered the US-based International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) to provide so-called political risk insurance and guarantees for maritime trade, particularly energy trade, that "passes through the Persian Gulf."

The Strait of Hormuz, located between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, serves as the only maritime outlet from the Persian Gulf to the open ocean, cementing its status as one of the most strategically important waterways in the world.

Iranian media reported that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) closed the Strait of Hormuz to shipping, declaring the crucial oil and gas waterway unsafe due to attacks by the US and Israel. –0–
