Iran’s Supreme Leader has issued a fiery warning to the United States, declaring that the country’s navy is fully prepared to confront and defeat American forces if conflict breaks out at sea.
The bold statement comes at a time of rising military tension in the Gulf, where both nations have increased their presence around strategic waters linked to global oil supply.
Iran says its naval forces are battle-ready and capable of responding to any attack, while the United States continues to maintain powerful warships in the region.
