Xiisadda u dhaxeysa Mareykanka iyo Iran ayaa sii xumaanaysa ka dib markii labada dhinac ay isweydaarsadeen weeraro milatari, taas oo halis gelinaysa heshiiskii nabadeed ee dhowaan la saxiixay. Weerarada cusub ayaa ku dhacay agagaarka marin biyoodka muhiimka ah ee Strait of Hormuz, kaas oo ah marin muhiim u ah gaadiidka saliida adduunka.

Sida laga soo xigtay taliska dhexe ee Mareykanka (CENTCOM), ciidamada Mareykanka ayaa qaaday weeraro cusub oo ka dhan ah goobo ku yaal xeebaha Iran, oo ay ku jiraan kaydka gantaalada iyo diyaaradaha aan duuliyaha lahayn (drones), iyo goobo radar ah oo ku yaal agagaarka Sirik iyo Qeshm Island. Weeraradan ayaa lagu sheegay in ay jawaab u yihiin weerar ay Iran ku qaaday markab ganacsi oo ku sugnaa Strait of Hormuz.

Iran ayaa dhankeeda sheegtay in ay weerartay goobo Mareykan ah oo ku yaal Kuwait iyo Bahrain, iyadoo ku eedaysay Mareykanka in uu jebiyay heshiiskii xabbad joojinta. Ilaalada Kacaanka Islaamiga ah ee Iran (IRGC) ayaa sheegay in weeraradooda ay ahaayeen kuwo ka jawaabaya gardarrada Mareykanka. Dhanka kale, madaxweyne Trump ayaa ugu baaqay Iran in ay joojiyaan gardarrada, isagoo sheegay in Mareykanku uu diyaar u yahay in uu "dhammaystiro hawsha" haddii loo baahdo.
