Iran's Navy, through Admiral Farhad Fattahi, claims it targeted a US Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, forcing it to end its mission and return via the Cape of Good Hope, and that a missile damaged the US carrier Abraham Lincoln.

Details by origin
Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
