The incident took place in the Gulf of Oman when an Iranian army helicopter warned the US destroyer USS Fitzgerald to withdraw from Iran's monitored waters. After an exchange of threats, the US ship was forced to change course. The incident comes a month after US attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities amid heightened tensions between Iran and Israel, which led to a temporary truce between the two countries.
