We have the ability to sink US warships, claims senior Iranian officer
A senior officer in Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed that it has the ability to sink any US warships which stray too close to its coastline. The general’s comment sets a hostile tone at the beginning of US President Joe Biden’s administration.
“If the US presence in the international waters near Iran is considered to be a threat to the country, thanks to our deterrent power and surface-to-surface, surface-to-air, surface-to-coast, coast-to-coast, coast-to-sea and sea-to-sea missiles, we have the ability to destroy American ships, ” General Rahim Noei-Aghdam told the state-backed Mehr News Agency yesterday.
“In contrast to the American forces in West Asia, which are unable to act, the intelligence, mobility, fighting, power, strength, cohesion, unity and morale of the forces of the Resistance Front, especially the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, are well known.”
