Defense officials believe explosion on Israeli cargo ship in Gulf cause by missile attack

The estimates are consistent with what a senior US official told Rooters last night, saying it was not an incident below sea level, meaning a mine, but above it, likely meaning a missile attack.
Such a strike would be a major escalation, as it would signal an Iranian military attack against a completely civilian target, without military or security affiliation with the State of Israel.
