IRGC: Strait of Hormuz Firmly Under Control of IRGC Navy

Tehran - BORNA - The full text of the IRGC Public Relations statement reads as follows:

“In the name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

‘And you did not throw when you threw, but it was God who threw.’

According to analysts and eyewitnesses, the intensity of Iran’s missile strikes toward the heart of Israel and various parts of the Middle East since dawn today refutes the narrative of Tel Aviv and Washington that the strikes have been reduced by up to 90 percent—an assertion that has become a recurring refrain in the speeches of American and Israeli officials.

Since early this morning, the IRGC Navy has carried out five large-scale and extensive operations as part of the 89th wave of Operation True Promise 4, under the blessed code ‘Ya Fatemeh al-Zahra (PBUH),’ dedicated to the souls of the martyrs currently being laid to rest by the people, particularly Martyr Tangsiri and Martyr Eshaqi. These operations targeted and destroyed key military objectives of the American-Zionist enemies using a combination of Qadir ballistic and cruise missiles and loitering munitions (kamikaze drones).

In the first offensive target, two airborne early warning radar systems in the possession of American terrorists in the region, stationed on a maritime structure in the waters and islands of the UAE, were destroyed with high precision.

An oil tanker belonging to the illegitimate and child-killing Zionist regime, named ‘Aqua One,’ in the central Persian Gulf was also accurately targeted by IRGC naval missile forces and is currently burning.

A concealed gathering site of American terrorists outside the operational perimeter of the enemy’s Fifth Fleet in Bahrain was struck by a large number of loitering munitions and several ballistic missiles. According to field reports, a significant number of senior naval officers of the terrorist forces were transferred to hospitals in the city of Manama following the attack.

The Chinook helicopter preparation center and its equipment storage hangars at Al-Udeid base were also struck by a combination of ballistic missiles and drones.

At dawn today, several waves of loitering munitions were launched toward the distressed ‘Abraham Lincoln’ carrier strike group in the northern Indian Ocean. According to available evidence and satellite imagery, the strike group retreated from its previous position and withdrew deeper into the Indian Ocean.

It is worth noting that, based on precise intelligence reports, as a result of yesterday’s IRGC Navy attack on a covert gathering site of American officers in the UAE, 37 individuals were confirmed killed and many others injured and transferred to hospitals.

We also inform the noble and history-making Iranian nation that the situation in the Strait of Hormuz is firmly and decisively under the control of the IRGC Navy, and this strait will not be opened to the enemies of this nation through the ridiculous displays of the U.S. president.

‘And victory is only from Allah, the Almighty, the Wise.’”
