IRGC: Countries Assisting Aggressors Will Receive Hard Response
Tehran - BORNA - Statement No. 54 issued by the IRGC reads as follows:
In the Name of God, the Crusher of Tyrants
Zealous and risen people of Islamic Iran; your resolve, determination, and steadfastness on the field have shattered the enemy's front, strengthened the ranks of the warriors of Islam, and injected fresh spirit and life into them.
Last night, two oil tankers attempted to exit through the unsafe southern route of the Strait of Hormuz at the instigation of American aircraft. Following a severe fire on one of them, both vessels quickly turned back.
The Strait of Hormuz is our territory, and the brave personnel of the IRGC Navy exercise authoritative control over it. No stranger coming from thousands of kilometers away will be allowed to interfere. With the help of Almighty God, the aggressor will be punished today.
Countries involved in aiding the aggressor will receive a hard response if they do not amend their behavior.
The Strait of Hormuz cannot be reopened as long as excessive demands, threats by U.S. officials, and their interference in maritime movements in the region persist. Threats and interventions will only make conditions harder and more complex.
Victory comes only from God, the Almighty, the All-Wise.
