He described the weapon as a “special missile” that “created hell for the Americans”, claiming the US vessels fled the area. Earlier on Sunday, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said its Aerospace Force had fired several ballistic missiles at a US aircraft carrier and an American destroyer involved in the blockade, forcing the vessels to leave the area, Fars News reported.  US Central Command has acknowledged that the vessels came under attack by "hostile missiles", adding that they were defeated without damage and were met with retaliatory strikes. Rezaei said the acknowledgement by US Central Command showed that Washington could not conceal the strikes, calling them a warning that the US naval blockade was vulnerable.
