The commander of the Revolutionary Guards Navy, Admiral Ali Azmai, claimed that the Americans and their allies imposed a communication blackout in the region to hide their losses: "There is also a communication blackout on the part of the Americans, and unfortunately the countries they cooperate with, so that people around the world do not understand that rogue ships are punished. Yesterday we had to show one or two of the ships, and we had to release that picture ourselves for them to understand. ".
