Iran's message to its neighbors and Muslim countries is friendship, brotherhood, and unity, and the presence of enemies and foreigners in this region is only for division and sedition, said Rear Admiral Alireza Tangsiri, the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Navy, reports Mehr News Agency. Tangsiri paid a visit to the latest status of readiness of operational combat units based in the Nazaat region, a group of four islands of Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb, Abu Musa, and Sirri in the Gulf near the Strait of Hormuz. Maintaining the security of the Nazaat Islands is one of the main missions of the IRGC Navy, Tangsiri said in this visit. One of the important goals of this visit was the operational evaluation of the equipment annexed to the defense units in the islands and the Strait of Hormuz, he said. "We [i.e. Iran] have emphasized many times that our message to the neighbors and Muslim countries is friendship, brotherhood, and unity, and the presence of enemies and foreigners in this region is only for division and sedition. and we will stand strong and steel against their whole world," the commander of the IRGC Navy said in a message to the neighbors and friendly countries of the Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
