The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), on Saturday, claimed it maintained full control over the Strait of Hormuz. It also warned that it would not allow US military vessels to enter the Persian Gulf, as President Donald Trump threatened to launch "another little Epic Fury" against Tehran if it failed to reach an agreement.
Chief of the General Staff of Iran's Armed Forces, Major General Ali Abdollahi, said Iranian forces had rendered the US Navy ineffective in the region, challenging Washington's assertions that Iran's military capabilities had been significantly weakened.
