Iran's Revolutionary Guards on Sunday said Iranian security forces had the Strait of Hormuz key shipping bottleneck under full control, warning that enemies would be trapped in its "deadly vortex" in case of any miscalculation.
"All traffic... is under the full control of the armed forces," the Guards naval command said in a Persian language post on X after President Donald Trump ordered a U.S. naval blockade of the Strait.
"The enemy will become trapped in a deadly vortex in the Strait if it makes the wrong move," it added, posting a video showing vessels in crosshairs.
