Tensions around the Strait of Hormuz keep climbing, and another confrontation is putting U.S. and Iranian forces directly in each other's path. CENTCOM says American forces destroyed two Iranian boats after they attempted to seize a U.S. sea drone. Iranian media gives a sharply different account, saying fishing vessels were attacked. The showdown comes as fighting spreads beyond the strait. Iran-backed Houthis are escalating operations in Yemen and threatening additional attacks on Saudi Arabia, adding new pressure around some of the world's most important energy and shipping routes. @​TreyYingst @​foxandfriends ▻
