IRGC Launches Drills in Strait of Hormuz

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps naval forces have begun military exercises in the Strait of Hormuz, testing operational readiness in the strategic waterway.

The drills come amid heightened regional tensions and increased military activity involving the United States and its allies.

Iranian officials say the exercises are aimed at strengthening deterrence and safeguarding maritime security.

The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world’s most critical energy transit routes, making any military activity there closely watched by global markets and governments.
