Tehran: No vessel can move through the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, or the Sea of Oman without being monitored by Iran, a senior official of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Navy says, stressing that the force has the capability to strike any vessel if ordered.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Ali Mohammadi, political deputy of the IRGC Navy, made the remarks at a ceremony commemorating martyrs in the northern Iranian city of Babol, Mazandaran Province. He highlighted the force's indigenous capabilities and readiness in regional waters.

Mohammadi stated that the IRGC Navy's power has been built on a combination of faith, experience, and strategic planning. Iranian forces have reportedly gained extensive experience through years of operations and training along the country's coasts, islands, and maritime areas.

He further commented on US efforts to weaken the Iranian people's resolve, asserting that Washington should not assume that destroying infrastructure such as bridges or roads could force Iran to surrender.

Additionally, Mohammadi pointed to the IRGC Navy's continued presence in challenging conditions, including on Farsi Island, describing the small strategic island as an example of Iran's sustained maritime presence.

The official emphasized that Iranian forces have trained for both conventional and unconventional warfare for years and are prepared for a direct confrontation at sea.

Referring to remarks by US President Donald Trump about unfinished work regarding Iran, Mohammadi issued a strong warning, indicating that Iran also has unfinished business with him.
