Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said earlier it publicly
released for the first time previously undisclosed surveillance footage and
videos of operations against vessels it described as violating rules. The IRGC
said its naval forces took decisive action and established effective control in
the Strait of Hormuz, warned any suspicious activity would be targeted, and
called the United States the region's biggest threat to security and maritime
trade, saying U.S. claims of support and escorting are lies.
