The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has reaffirmed its control over the Strait of Hormuz, warning that any interference will be met with a severe response. In the past 24 hours, 26 merchant ships and oil tankers have passed through the strait with Iranian permission and coordination. The IRGC emphasized that unauthorized passage is considered disruptive and will be addressed according to regulations. The IRGC reported that several vessels attempted unauthorized entry into the Persian Gulf by tampering with navigation systems. Two vessels were intercepted by IRGC Navy forces, while others returned to port after radio warnings. Additionally, the IRGC accused US forces of violating a ceasefire by firing missiles near Bandar Abbas Airport, prompting a retaliatory strike on the US base involved. The IRGC warned of severe consequences for any future violations.
