Mohammad Akbarzadeh stated that the expanse of the Strait of Hormuz has increased from 20–30 miles in the past to over 200–300 miles, forming a complete crescent.
Akbarzadeh stressed, “This comes while some enemies claimed that the Naval Force of the Islamic Republic of Iran has been weakened or does not exist. But this very design and implementation of the new plan shows that this Force is present on the scene with authority.”
He emphasized that Iran monitors regional movements with precision and authority, and will not allow any violation of its waters and interests.
Akbarzadeh stated that the guardians of the Strait of Hormuz have shown that this strait is under the authoritative control of Iran and is powerfully protected.
