Iranian military spokesman Mohammad Akraminia has stated that the country's armed forces are now stronger and more motivated than they were at the start of the war with the United States and Israel in February. In an interview with state news agency Irna, Akraminia said that the experience gained from direct confrontations with the US and Israeli regime has given the armed forces greater motivation, commitment, and self-confidence.
He also confirmed that Iranian forces continue to maintain control over the Strait of Hormuz, and that the waterway would remain closed until Tehran's demands are met by the United States. According to Akraminia, any response from the Iranian armed forces will be immediate, effective, and not limited to a specific geographical area, as directed by the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic.
