CNN – A U.S. military supply ship fired Monday at a small boat in the Persian Gulf after it came too close, killing one person on board and wounding three, Defense Department officials said.
The USNS Rappahannock, a fuel resupply ship, fired on what two U.S. officials called a “small, white pleasure craft” 10 miles (16 kilometers) from the Dubai port of Jebel Ali.
