According to him, Iranian missiles and drones have already been positioned against American targets and what he described as “enemy ships” in the region.
Mousavi stated that Iran’s military forces are only waiting for orders before launching attacks.
In a separate statement posted on X, the IRGC Navy Command repeated the warning, stressing that Iran could strike American facilities in the region as well as hostile vessels.
“The United States will face heavy attacks on its assets if it hits our tankers again,” the IRGC commander warned.
The latest exchange of threats comes amid rising tensions between Iran and the United States over security concerns in the Gulf region and the Strait of Hormuz.
