"The heavy attack of the IRGC Navy in 4 successful operations against the targets of American-Zionist terrorists
Public Relations of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps: At dawn today, the zealous warriors of the IRGC Marines in the 88th wave of Operation True Promise with the blessed code "Ya Fatimah al-Zahra (PBUH)" during a heavy attack against the targets of the American-Zionist terrorists inflicted fatal blows on them.
In this lightning attack, a container ship belonging to the Zionist regime named Express Halfong was hit by IRGC Navy ballistic missiles in the middle waters of the Persian Gulf.
In the second combined operation, the gathering place of the American Marines on the coast of the UAE, who were hiding in a cover place outside the military base and were afraid of the IRGC's destructive missiles, was accurately hit by destructive drones.
In another part of this operation, the anti-drone system (HAG) of the fifth fleet of American terrorists, which was stationed outside the base and around the Manama airport in Bahrain, was destroyed with destructive drones.
In another part of this operation, two advanced air early warning radars in the base of American terrorists "Jaber Al-Ahmad" were hit by the drones of this force.
The IRGC Navy announced that the Strait of Hormuz is completely under the control of the soldiers of this force, according to the order of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief, and the slightest movement of the enemies will be attacked by missiles and drones. This operation continues...
The achievements of this great operation are dedicated to the high spirit of the brave and people-oriented commander Martyr Alireza Tangsiri and other martyrs of the IRGC Navy. The Marine Corps will continue the path of Martyr Tangsiri with strength and strength, and we are sure that dear Martyr is by our side and is in command. "
This could have significant implications for energy markets, particularly oil prices, if shipping through this critical chokepoint is threatened. Traders should monitor how this develops, as heightened geopolitical risks typically lead to volatility in commodities and associated currencies.
