00:20A senior Iranian military advisor has issued a direct and explosive warning, claiming Iranian
00:26forces are ready to target and sink American warships if conflict escalates in the region.
00:32Mohsen Rezaeh, a top aide to Iran's supreme leader and former IRGC commander, made the
00:39remarks during a televised interview, sharply escalating already high tensions between Tehran
00:44and Washington.
00:46He claimed Iranian missile launchers are locked-on U.S. naval vessels operating near strategic
00:52waterways, including the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz.
00:55Rezaeh warned that any U.S. military move, including efforts to enforce a naval blockade,
01:02would be met with a powerful Iranian response at sea.
01:05He further stated that Iran possesses significant undisclosed military capabilities and would
01:11not allow American naval pressure to succeed.
01:14His comments come as the United States continues expanded naval operations in the region amid
01:19heightened concerns over shipping security and maritime choke points.
01:23Rezaeh also dismissed U.S. strategy as ineffective, arguing that past American military campaigns
01:30in the region have failed to achieve their objectives.
01:33He suggested Iran is fully prepared for escalation and warned that any attack on Iranian ports could
01:39trigger a wider regional response.
01:41Meanwhile, tensions remain high across the Gulf, where naval deployments and military posturing
01:47continue on both sides.
01:49Iranian officials have repeatedly accused Washington of escalating pressure through military presence
01:55and blockade rhetoric, while framing their own posture as defensive and deterrent.
01:59Rezaeh also weighed in on ceasefire talks, stating that any extension would depend on strict conditions
02:06being met, including formal recognition of Iran's demands.
02:09He stressed that future negotiations with the United States would require extreme precision, warning
02:16that every word will matter.
02:18Despite ongoing diplomatic discussions in recent weeks, no final agreement has been reached,
02:23with both sides trading blame over stalled progress.
02:27For now, the region remains on edge, with military warnings, naval activity, and diplomatic deadlock
02:33all converging into a rapidly escalating standoff at sea.
