TEHRAN, April 25 (Xinhua) -- Iran's main military command, Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, vowed Saturday to react if the United States continues "blockade, banditry and piracy" in the region, according to Iran's semi-official Tasnim news agency.

The military command said it is "ready and determined to monitor the behavior and movement of the enemies in the region" and "continue to manage and control the strategic Strait of Hormuz," and will "inflict more severe damage" on the United States and its allies if necessary, according to Tasnim.
