TEHRAN, April 12 (Xinhua) -- Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy Command warned Sunday that any "wrong move" in the Strait of Hormuz would trap its enemies in "deadly whirlpools," according to the IRGC-affiliated news outlet Sepah News.
The Navy command said that Iranian drones were monitoring the strait in real time and added that all movement in the area was under the "full control" of Iran's armed forces.
The statement came shortly after U.S. President Donald Trump said that the U.S. Navy would begin blocking ships trying to enter or leave the Strait of Hormuz, according to a post on his Truth Social platform. Trump said the move would take effect "immediately." ■
