The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps issues a statement amid the extension of the current ceasefire vowing to remain vigilant amid sky-high tensions in the region.
The IRGC vows to “deliver crushing blows beyond the enemy’s imagination to its remaining assets in the region.”
The Guard “remains at peak readiness and determination to continue the fight, prepared for a decisive, certain and immediate response to any threat or renewed aggression,” the statement adds.
The IRGC fired at a container ship off the coast of Oman today, claiming that it had ignored warnings.
