BOOM! Trump reveals US destroyed 9 ‘important’ Iranian naval ships — and is ‘going after the rest’

March 1, 2026

From the New York Post: President Trump boasted Sunday that the US sank nine Iranian warships ships and “largely destroyed” Tehran’s naval headquarters.

“I have just been informed that we have destroyed and sunk 9 Iranian Naval Ships, some of them relatively large and important,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “We are going after the rest — They will soon be floating at the bottom of the sea, also!”

“In a different attack, we largely destroyed their Naval Headquarters,” the president added. “Other than that, their Navy is doing very well!”

The report notes that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had claimed credit for a series of attacks on commercial tankers and vessels.

However, the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) refuted that, writing on X:

🚫Iran’s IRGC claims to have struck USS Abraham Lincoln with ballistic missiles. LIE.
✅The Lincoln was not hit. The missiles launched didn’t even come close. The Lincoln continues to launch aircraft in support of CENTCOM’s relentless campaign to defend the American people by eliminating threats from the Iranian regime.

In additional posts, CENTCOM added:

Last night, U.S. B-2 stealth bombers, armed with 2,000 lb. bombs, struck Iran’s hardened ballistic missile facilities. No nation should ever doubt America’s resolve.

The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) killed more than 1,000 Americans over the past 47 years. Yesterday, a large-scale U.S. strike cut off the head of the snake. America has the most powerful military on earth, and the IRGC no longer has a headquarters.
