Iran Vows Strong Retaliation Against Israel, Claims Control Over Strait of Hormuz
Iran's army spokesperson, Mohammad Akrami Nia, announced that Iran's sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz is in its final stages of consolidation. He asserted that Tehran will not permit the United States to take the initiative in the region.
Akrami Nia stated that the Iranian army will conduct preemptive operations wherever it detects a threat. He attributed the difficulties faced by American forces in the region to mistakes made by American entities when attacking a sovereign nation.
He urged the United States to acknowledge reality, bear the consequences of its actions, and withdraw from the region, suggesting this would lead to greater regional security.
Addressing Israel, Akrami Nia issued a direct threat: "If Israel provides assistance or launches an attack, we will strike it easily, quickly, and with greater force than before."
