  • An IRGC spokesman said Iran remains in a state of war and that “anything is possible” regarding a potential resumption of fighting.
  • He claimed military confrontations are taking place in the Strait of Hormuz every 24 hours and said Iranian forces target small vessels attempting to cross the waterway.

A spokesman for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said Wednesday that Iran remains in a state of war, warning that any development remains possible if hostilities resume.

Asked about the possibility of renewed fighting, the spokesman said, “We are still in a state of war, and under these circumstances, anything is possible.”

He said the opposing side had recognized Iran’s military capabilities and the Iranian people’s determination to withstand pressure.

The spokesman said all major decisions are made through Iran’s Supreme National Security Council and that decisions taken by the council cannot be implemented without the approval of Iran’s Supreme Leader.

He also rejected reports of divisions between Iran’s diplomatic apparatus and armed forces, saying there is coordination between the military and diplomatic sectors.

The IRGC spokesman claimed that the Strait of Hormuz is witnessing military confrontations every 24 hours.

He said Iranian forces are targeting small vessels attempting to cross the strait, while claiming that the United States has not responded to these actions for some time.

The claims have not been independently verified.

The Strait of Hormuz remains a key global energy route, connecting the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea. Developments in the waterway have raised international concerns over the security of commercial shipping and energy supplies.
