فلن يقبل عدو التوقف عن من يراه عدوه الا في حال الردع والجهوزية والتحرك السريع— محمد علي الحوثي (@Moh_Alhouthi) November 3, 2021
“The enemy would not stop if not for deterrence, readiness and rapid action,” he said.
Iran announced that the Navy Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) had thwarted a US attempt to steal Iranian oil in the Oman Sea.
The Iranian forces carried out a landing and recovered both the shipment of oil and the tanker vessel.
