On October 15, U.S. Central Command posted on the social platform X, saying that three claims made by Iran over the past 24 hours regarding the situation in the Strait of Hormuz were "false." U.S. Central Command said that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' claim that it controls the Strait of Hormuz is false, that the United States and its regional partners still control the relevant waters, and that commercial vessels continue to transit. The U.S. side also said that a container ship flying the flag of Singapore did not strike a mine, but was hit by a projectile fired by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and sank while being towed toward shore; more than 40 commercial vessels still passed through the Strait of Hormuz in the past 24 hours. In addition, the U.S. side denied the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' claim that "hundreds of U.S. military personnel were killed in Jordan," saying that in July of this year only 3 U.S. service members died while assisting partner forces in repelling Iranian attacks.
