The United States military announced it struck and sank Iran's drone carrier Shahid Bakri. The attack took place just hours after the launch of operation Epic Fury.

US forces targeted the vessel as part of efforts to degrade Iran's unmanned aerial capabilities. The Shahid Bakri served as a key platform for launching and controlling drones used by the regime.

The strike reflects the rapid pace of the ongoing campaign against Iranian military assets. It follows a series of successful hits on missile launchers, naval ships, and command structures across the country.

No further details on casualties or secondary explosions were immediately released. The operation continues with no signs of slowing.
