The IRGC said its Navy targeted locations in the region where US forces are deployed, without specifying where or providing additional details.

It condemned the US strikes on Iran, saying Washington, “as always, violated its commitments and launched an air strike” on the Iranian coast.

“According to Article 5 of the Memorandum of Understanding, Islamabad has arrangements for controlling traffic in the Strait of Hormuz with the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the IRGC said.

“However, the US, by inciting various parties, sought to violate this commitment, which was met with the necessary response,” the statement continued. “If the aggression is repeated, our response will be more extensive.”

Or the useless battleships that Trump keeps wanting to build. Battleships, in 2026. You can’t even land a plane on them. Might as well bring some soldiers on horseback.
