The Chief of General Staff of the AMN: No offensive vessel is safe. While thanking the brave fighters of the army, the Revolutionary Guards and the Basij, Major General Abdullahi said: The naval and ground forces of the Revolutionary Guards have full control over the shores of the Persian Gulf, the islands and the Strait of Hormuz, and every movement in this area is under serious surveillance. He announced that contrary to the American leaders' propaganda and media claims that the Strait of Hormuz is open and free, this strategic waterway is completely closed and managed by the control and supervision of the Revolutionary Guards' powerful navy. The naval and land forces of the army, in addition to a high level of readiness and morale, respect the open waters of the Sea of Oman and its shores.
