U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said on Wednesday that U.S. forces had destroyed 10 Iranian oil tankers over the past week.

The command said the 10 tankers were part of a multibillion-dollar shadow network that finances Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
CENTCOM also said claims by the IRGC that it had targeted two U.S. Navy destroyers in the Middle East were "completely false."
The latest announcement follows U.S. strikes on five Iranian oil tankers on Tuesday, after the IRGC attempted to target a U.S. Navy warship with ballistic missiles twice over two days.
