🚫CLAIM: Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed in a recent statement that strikes by U.S. forces to prevent the IRGC from placing mines in the Strait of Hormuz were an “act of aggression.” This claim is absolutely FALSE.
✅FACT: U.S. forces took limited, precise action against IRGC minelaying forces posing an imminent threat in the Strait of Hormuz. In essence, Iran created the threat and the U.S. military eliminated it to protect civilian mariners, commercial shipping, and the free flow of global commerce.
U.S. Navy E/A 18G electronic-warfare aircraft patrol the skies over the Middle East while the U.S. continues to enforce the blockade against Iran. As of Aug. 27, CENTCOM forces have redirected 75 commercial vessels, disabled 3 and boarded 2 to ensure compliance.
U.S. Sailors conduct night flight operations aboard USS George Washington (CVN 73) as the ship sails in regional waters supporting operations in the Middle East.
@TrumpWarRoom ALL WE NEEDED WAS A NEW PRESIDENT WITH A CONSTRUCTION AND BUILDING BACKGROUND -
BIG DIFFERENCE WHAT A TRUE PRO-AMERICAN PRESIDENT CAN BE.
U.S. forces remain centered on very clear military objectives in eliminating Iran’s ability to project power against Americans, and against its neighbors.
U.S. forces continue to eliminate the Iranian regime’s one-way attack drone capabilities, which they’ve used to indiscriminately target civilians throughout the region.
