What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

In a 2014 report, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) warned of potential military action against US warships. The threats were made by Ali Mohammadi, the IRGC Navy’s deputy for political affairs, in response to claims by Donald Trump regarding control over the Strait of Hormuz. Mohammadi stated that if the US claimed control of the waterway, the IRGC would undoubtedly attack and hit ships and destroyers, even in the Indian Ocean.

The threats concern the Strait of Hormuz and the Indian Ocean, which are critical global maritime choke points. The potential for military action in these areas raises significant risks for global shipping lanes, energy transit, and maritime insurance markets.
