Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Iran has stated that “any foreign military presence, particularly the invading American forces … will face attack” if they attempt to approach or enter the Strait of Hormuz, as reported by a senior military official.
Maj. Gen. Ali Abdollahi, commander of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, which is the unified command of Iran’s military, stated on Monday that Iran will safeguard the security of the strait “with full strength” following the US commitment to escort stranded vessels through the critical oil shipping chokepoint.
“Abdollahi stated, “We robustly oversee and safeguard the security of the Strait of Hormuz and advise all commercial vessels and oil tankers to avoid any transit without coordination with the armed forces present in the Strait of Hormuz to ensure their safety isn’t compromised.”
The waterway is managed by Iran’s military, and any “hostile actions by America aiming to disturb the situation will only lead to increased complications and jeopardize the safety of vessels” in the region, Abdollahi stated.
