File photoWASHINGTON, Jun 21 Three Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps gunboats approached two US Navy ships in the Persian Gulf at «dangerously high speeds,» the Washington Post reported, citing sources. .The US Navy patrol ship USS Sirocco, along with the American high-speed transport army ship USNS Choctaw County, were crossing in the international waters of the Persian Gulf when three Iranian boats began to move towards them. It is noted that they changed their trajectory only when the US patrol ship issued an audible warning. It is reported that the Middle Eastern boats also approached the USNS Choctaw County transport ship by about 46 meters, after which the Americans launched a warning flare. This happened for about an hour. US Central Command spokesman Joseph Buccino said that the actions of the Iranian side «do not meet international standards of professional or safe behavior at sea» and could also provoke a military clash. .jpg» />Japanese naval forces tracked the movement of Russian ships
