U.S. Missiles Hit Iran's Qeshm Island in Strait of Hormuz; Trump Calls It 'Small Strikes'

Two missiles struck Iran-controlled Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz. President Donald Trump did not directly confirm the attack but said the U.S. launched "small strikes." Iran's Tasnim news agency reported at least two missiles hit the island on Saturday, with state TV reporting two explosions. Witnesses cited by IRNA said projectiles struck the Suza area after aircraft were heard overhead. Iran's military said it shot down a U.S. drone over the island earlier that morning. The strike follows a U.S. attack on Qeshm on November 2, described by Washington as a "defensive strike" amid a series of covert limited operations against Iran. Trump claimed a U.S. strike disabled an Iranian anti-aircraft device in about five to fifteen minutes, adding his administration remains in contact with Tehran.
