SAEDNEWS: Admiral Irani said that the Iranian Navy has become a major influential force in the region. He ruled out claims that USS Dwight D. Eisenhower had arrived in the region to change the military and political equations in the region. “It should be said that they have come [to the region] to sow division and meet their own needs... we will soon force them out of the region,” the commander said while speaking at a gathering in Tehran that focused on Iran’s maritime activities in its southeastern waters.
The comments come amid a fragile maritime situation in the region which many believe is a direct result of the conflict in Palestine where the Israeli regime has been involved in a relentless military campaign in the Gaza Strip for more than two months.
The US dispatched two of its major aircraft carriers to the region right after the war in Gaza started on October 7. Washington said at the time that the warships had been sent to prevent a regional spread of the war and to protect Israel and allies against threats from other countries.
That comes as US navy forces have been unable to fend off attacks by Yemeni resistance forces on Israeli-linked ships that pass the Arab country’s ports in the Red Sea (SOURCE: FARSNEWS).
