The IRGC Public Relations office announced in a statement on Saturday that after an aggression of the child-killing and terrorist US army on Sirik and Qeshm Islands, the enemy’s bases in the region were hit by missiles fired by the IRGC Aerospace Force.

“At 01:30 AM today, four offending oil tankers, incited and guided by the US aggressor army, without coordination and without paying attention to the warnings of the IRGC Navy, intended to illegally exit the Strait of Hormuz. After a warning, one of the oil tankers was targeted and stopped, and the other offending vessels turned back,” the statement said.

“Following this incident at 2:00 AM, American drones hit a telecommunications tower in Qeshm and a tower in Sirik with two projectiles. In response to the aggression of the child-killing American army, two American air bases in Kuwait, named Ali al-Salem, and the remaining important facilities in the US Navy’s Fifth Fleet in Bahrain, were immediately targeted by ballistic missiles from the IRGC Aerospace Force,” it added.

“We warn the aggressor and child-killing enemy that if these evil acts are repeated, a limited response will not suffice. You will be responsible for the consequences of the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz to the exit of oil and gas.”
