Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has issued a sharp warning to the United States, cautioning against any potential military action targeting American naval assets in the region. The IRGC stated that it would deploy the full capabilities of what it calls the “resistance front,” signaling the possible involvement of allied forces across West Asia in the event of escalation. In strongly worded remarks, the IRGC warned that US maritime forces could face direct strikes, declaring that it is prepared to target large naval vessels if tensions intensify.
