Explosions were heard from the Persian Gulf in the Kharg Island area. An Iranian tanker about six miles off Kharg Island came under U.S. missile attack in the island's anchorage zone.
Four projectiles hit the vessel, according to the reports. Local sources said the incident caused no casualties and that the tanker's crew were evacuating the ship.
Authorities are still assessing the extent of damage and the full circumstances of the incident, with further details expected later.
