Rosneft CEO Sechin said blocking the Strait of Hormuz is an attempt to change the rules of the global energy market to benefit the United States.

Local time on the 5th, CENTCOM said US forces recently shot down four Iranian one-way attack drones launched toward the Strait of Hormuz. CENTCOM subsequently struck Iranian coastal surveillance radar sites at Goruk and Qeshm Island to guard against further attacks.

June 4 — U.S. Central Command said it intercepted multiple ballistic missiles and drones Iran fired toward the Strait of Hormuz and neighboring Gulf states. CENTCOM said it had earlier shot down four one‑way attack drones aimed at the Strait of Hormuz that posed a direct threat to maritime traffic. To deter further maritime attacks, U.S. forces struck Iranian coastal surveillance radar sites on Goruk and Qeshm islands. Preliminary assessment: six launched missiles were intercepted; a seventh failed to hit its intended target. No U.S. casualties reported; CENTCOM rejected Iran’s claim that it struck U.S. Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain. Forces remain on high alert and ready to act in self‑defense.
