CENTCOM Releases Video of US Destroying Massive Iranian Drone Carrier Ship the Size of a WWII Aircraft Carrier

U.S. Central Command released dramatic unclassified video Thursday of American forces striking and setting ablaze a massive Iranian drone carrier ship comparable in size to a World War II aircraft carrier. The footage shows the vessel -- believed to be the Shahid Bagheri, one of the largest ships in Iran's fleet -- engulfed in flames following the strike. The attack represents the continued systematic destruction of Iran's navy, which the Pentagon says has been effectively neutralized as a fighting force. The drone carrier was designed to launch unmanned aerial vehicles across vast distances, and its destruction removes one of Iran's most capable platforms for the kind of long-range drone attacks that have struck U.S. diplomatic facilities across the Gulf.
