Iran – Video filmed by X user U.S. Central Command shows black-and-white infrared footage labeled “UNCLASSIFIED” capturing precision airstrikes on Iranian naval vessels.

Crosshairs lock onto dark shapes of boats and ships moving across the water before multiple munitions strike. The impacts produce intense white flashes, followed by large secondary explosions and heavy plumes of smoke and debris that engulf the vessels as they burn or sink.

The grainy footage, recorded from high-altitude aircraft or drones, shows rapid, successive strikes hitting several targets in sequence.

Released on March 28, 2026, the video highlights ongoing U.S. military activity under Operation Epic Fury, a campaign launched on February 28 to dismantle Iran’s military capabilities, including its naval forces.

According to the description accompanying the footage, “For decades, Iranian naval vessels have threatened and harassed global shipping in regional waters, but those days are over.”
