Press TV \u2013 June 27, 2026<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Navy has struck American military targets in the region in retaliation for earlier aggression against Iranian coastal areas.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The force made the remarks in a statement issued on Friday, saying its reprisal “targeted the deployment sites of the US terrorist military in the region.”<\/p>\n

It noted that the retaliation came after American forces launched airstrikes against areas lying along the Iranian coastline as part of the United States’ changeless “pattern of breaching its commitments.”<\/p>\n

Waging the aggression, Washington used “various pretexts, including the passage of a non-compliant vessel through an unauthorized route in the Strait of Hormuz,” the statement added.<\/p>\n

Earlier, the United States Central Command had reported carrying out attacks against some targets in Iran<\/p>\n

CENTCOM that overseas the American forces deployed to the West Asia region, alleged it had staged the aggression in return for, what it described as, a Thursday drone strike against a vessel, which it named as Singapore-flagged cargo vessel MV Ever Lovely. The strike, it claimed, took place as the vessel was departing the Strait of Hormuz along the Omani coast.<\/p>\n

The Islamic Republic has, on all occasions, categorically rejected any allegations of targeting non-military objects, while warning about attempts at trying to implicate the country in such attacks by staging “false flag” operations.<\/p>\n

The IRGC Navy also noted that the United States sought to violate its commitments under a memorandum of understanding recently signed between the two sides “through various provocations.”<\/p>\n

Warning against further provocations<\/strong><\/h2>\n

“And it has now received the necessary response,” the statement went on, referring to the force’s retaliation. “The same will apply to any future violations,” it added.<\/p>\n

“Should this aggression be repeated, our response will be broader than this.”<\/p>\n

The signing of the MoU was preceded by a ceasefire announced on April 7 by US President Donald Trump in the latest bout of unprovoked American-Israeli aggression against the Islamic Republic.<\/p>\n

Following the announcement, the United States would repeatedly violate the ceasefire only to face determined Iranian reprisal on each occasion.<\/p>\n
