CENTCOM:

- Claim: In a recent statement, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed that U.S. forces’ attacks to prevent the IRGC from placing mines in the Strait of Hormuz were a “aggressive act.” This claim is completely false. - Reality: U.S. forces carried out limited and precise actions against IRGC forces that were installing mines in the Strait of Hormuz and were creating an immediate threat. In other words, Iran created the threat, and the U.S. military neutralized it to protect nonmilitary mariners, commercial vessels, and the free flow of global trade.
