Israel Navy Targets Iran to Ease Strait of Hormuz Risk

Israel’s navy and naval intelligence say they are striking Iranian targets as part of Operation Roaring Lion to degrade Tehran’s naval capabilities, including the reported assassination of Iranian Naval Chief Alireza Tangsiri and strikes on cruise‑missile production sites and a submarine development center, aiming to reduce Iran’s ability to threaten shipping through the Strait of Hormuz while boosting Israel’s deterrence and support for other operations against Hezbollah.
