Iranian Forces Display Strength in Hormuz Strait

Iran's judiciary chief, Ejei, expressed pride in the display of power by Iranian armed forces in the Hormuz Strait on social media. According to Odaily, Ejei stated that three more vessels violating regulations were dealt with in the strategic waterway on the 22nd. He remarked that 'Americans dare not approach the Hormuz Strait,' referencing the fate of the two so-called advanced destroyers, 'USS Michael Murphy' and 'USS Peterson.' Ejei also noted that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps has deployed a 'swarm' fleet of speedboats and drones around the caves near Forur Island, maintaining vigilance against U.S. naval vessels and attempting to suppress them through 'saturation' tactics.
