BREAKING: For the first time in the war, Iran has just launched the Qasem Basir medium-range anti-ship ballistic missile, firing several of them from Isfahan toward vessels under US Navy escort in the US-backed southern Omani corridor of the Strait of Hormuz, per multiple initial reports. Several flights are now being put on hold in UAE airspace following the launches from Isfahan, likely targeting US-backed Gulf ship-to-ship oil transfers.
