IRGC Commander: Strait Of Hormuz In Range Of Iranian Fire
IRGC commander Mohammad J’afari has warned that the Strait of Hormuz is in firing range of Iran, and that in wartime Iran could easily close it for an unlimited time.
He added that Iran’s response capability lay even beyond its borders, and that if Iran were attacked it would use all its capabilities, both missile and defensive, to harm the enemy.
He also said that in contrast to the West’s aspirations for a brief war, Iran would act to extend a war.
