Revolutionary Guards Navy Commander: The Americans are 600 to 700 km from the Strait of Hormuz.

Ali Azmai, commander of the Revolutionary Guards Navy, claimed that "the Americans are not present in the Persian Gulf." According to him, "Today, the Americans are not in the Persian Gulf and they are 600 to 700 kilometers away from the Strait of Hormuz, and it is impossible to see their vessels in this area."

Ali Azmai added: "America has no more place in the Strait of Hormuz."

A few hours ago, Donald Trump accused Iran of "fake news" about mine explosions and ground attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz, and he is trying with all his might to raise oil prices before the mid-term elections in the United States.

The American president said that the oil passing through the Strait of Hormuz is now more than before the war, and for this reason, Iran is using every means to raise the price of oil. Today, the price of a barrel of Brent oil has reached more than $113, which is the highest price of this commodity in the last five months.
