PENTAGON —
An Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) boat pointed its weapon at a helicopter launched from aboard the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower in the Strait of Hormuz, a U.S. defense official told VOA Monday.
The official said the weapon pointed at the U.S. helicopter on Saturday resembled a “.60-caliber on a pole."
“The actions of the Iranians were both unprofessional and unsafe,” the defense official told VOA.
