🇮🇷 Iran declares highest military alert

Iran has raised the readiness of its armed forces to the highest level. Abolfazl Shekarchi, spokesman for the General Staff of the Armed Forces, announced this on the morning of September 20. According to him, the military has prepared various operational scenarios for land, air, and sea in the event of a further escalation of the conflict.

At the same time, Shekarchi rejected a statement by CENTCOM Commander Brad Cooper. Cooper had claimed that American forces had secured passage through the Strait of Hormuz for more than one billion barrels of oil. The Iranian side described this assessment as “fabricated” and claimed that Tehran continues to determine the conditions for shipping through the strait.
