Iran military says will respond if US blockade and ‘banditry’ continues

 

Iran’s military said on Saturday it would respond if the United States maintained its blockade of Iranian ports, calling it “banditry” and “piracy”.

In a statement carried by state-run media outlet IRIB, the military’s central command Khatam Al-Anbiya said that if “the invading US military continues blockading, banditry, and piracy in the region, they should be certain that they will face a response from Iran’s powerful armed forces”.

“We are ready and determined, while monitoring the behaviour and movements of enemies,” it added.
