Yes. On Monday, September 14, 2026, U.S. forces destroyed two small Iranian boats after the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps attempted to seize a U.S. Navy unmanned surface vessel patrolling the Strait of Hormuz, according to U.S. officials.
U.S. Central Command spokesperson Capt. Tim Hawkins said Iranian small boats tried to take possession of the unmanned vessel but were unsuccessful after CENTCOM responded forcefully, and that the surface drone remained under U.S. operational control. A U.S. official said an American drone fired two missiles at the boats.
Iranian state media described the vessels as fishing boats struck near Larak Island and Bandar Kargan and said several fishermen were missing; Hormozgan provincial officials attributed the strike to the U.S. military.
