The Public Relations Department of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy issued a statement on Tuesday night, reporting that over the past 24 hours, 25 ships, including oil tankers, container ships, and other commercial vessels, passed through the Strait of Hormuz after obtaining permission and with the coordination and security provided by the IRGC Navy.

The IRGC Navy further emphasized that smart control of the Strait of Hormuz is being carried out with strength, and any aggression will be met with crushing responses. The statement underscores the IRGC's role in managing maritime traffic through this strategic waterway, which is a critical chokepoint for global oil shipments.
