State news agency reported on the 9th that Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps
spokesman Muhibbi said on the evening of the 8th that no advanced technology can
penetrate Iran's multi-layer surveillance system in the Strait of Hormuz. He
said Iranian forces captured what he described as the US military's most
advanced unmanned submersible earlier that day, saying the incident demonstrates
Iran's multi-layer monitoring capability, and asserted control of the Persian
Gulf rests with Iran's tech-savvy youth.
