The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy said 35 ships crossed the Strait of Hormuz over the past 24 hours after obtaining permits and coordinating with IRGC naval forces, Iran International reports.
The IRGC Navy’s public relations office said the vessels included oil tankers, container ships and other commercial vessels.
It said the ships passed through the strait with IRGC security coordination.
The statement said that despite what it called insecurity caused by US military action in the Strait of Hormuz, the IRGC Navy had created “a safe waterway” for shipping and the continuation of global trade.
