Iranian speed boats harassed US Navy ships
The U.S. Navy revealed that two U.S. ships in and near the Gulf were harassed by Iranian speedboats last week.

Navy officials said that in separate incidents on January 6, three Iranian speedboats -- each armed with a mounted gun -- briefly chased after a U.S. Navy ship just outside the Gulf near the Strait of Hormuz and a U.S. Coast Guard cutter in the northern Gulf.
No shots were fired and the speedboats backed off.
