The United States Central Command said Friday that it has struck Iranian drone and missile storage locations in response to Iran's attack on a commercial vessel in the Strait of Hormuz Thursday evening.

Iran's strike Thursday came just hours after the Iranian military warned that ships crossing the Strait of Hormuz require their authorization. Those that don't comply, it said, "will be dealt with."

The U.S. accused Iran of violating its Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), which was signed by both countries last week to end the fighting and reopen the shipping lane.

"The unwarranted aggression against commercial shipping by Iranian forces clearly violated the ceasefire," CENTCOM said in a statement. "Furthermore, Iran’s dangerous behavior undermined freedom of navigation as commerce increasingly flows through the vital international trade corridor.

"CENTCOM forces continue to provide safe passage coordination and support to commercial vessels transiting the strait," it continued. "The U.S. military remains present and vigilant to ensure all aspects of the agreement with Iran are adhered to, obeyed, and in full force and effect."

The military did not state exactly where the strikes occurred but said it impacted drone and missile storage locations, along with coastal radar sites in Iran.
