On the same day, it was reported that the Iranian military had disabled the American aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln and forced the ship to head for its home base. The Iranian ambassador to Moscow, Kazem Jalali, said on March 11 that the damage to the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln caused by Iran was a message for Washington.

Also, a missile attack on the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln was carried out on March 1. The SNN TV channel noted that the ship was attacked by four cruise missiles, which is why its crew decided to leave the mission site. These operations are being conducted by Tehran as part of the "True Promise 4", which it launched in response to the Israeli-American military actions, dubbed "Lion's Roar".
