Israeli Ship Attacked in Indian Ocean: Suspected Iranian Involvement, US Official Reports

An Israeli-owned container ship, the CMA CGM Symi, was targeted in a suspected Iranian drone attack in the Indian Ocean. The attack occurred as Israel continues its conflict with Hamas in Gaza. The drone, believed to be a Shahed-136, exploded near the ship, causing damage but no injuries to the crew. The U.S. military suspects Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard was behind the attack. This incident highlights the increasing targeting of global shipping in the ongoing conflict, which has the potential to escalate into a wider regional conflict.
