IRGC Navy says US bases ‘will experience hell in these days’

The IRGC’s Navy command has issued a statement on the escalation with the US, Al Jazeera reports.

It said the US’s attack on the city of Sirik “does not solve the mystery of our dominance over the strait, but our firing at the violators reminds the rest of the vessels of the clear path of passage”.

“The American bases in the region are a separate matter. They will experience hell in these days,” it added.
