🇺🇸🇮🇷 - Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of CENTCOM, established a special unit called "Iron Gate", a team of about 20 military personnel and civilians based in Tampa, Florida. Their mission is to prevent Iran from using land and sea routes, including the Caspian Sea, to transfer advanced weapons, dual-use technologies and protected materials.
This special unit will coordinate with US government agencies to limit these illicit shipments and revenue streams, thereby further tightening Washington's sanctions against Iran.
