A senior Iranian military commander has warned of a full-scale defense against potential attacks from the United States and Israel, according to Al Jazeera. The statement comes amid rising tensions in the region.
The commander, General Hatami, emphasized Iran’s readiness to respond to any aggression, signaling a heightened military stance. This follows recent reports of increased military activity in the Persian Gulf.
Meanwhile, the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping route, has seen a sharp decline in traffic. Before the conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran began on February 28, the strait handled about 125 large commercial ships daily.
The reduction in maritime traffic highlights growing concerns over regional stability and the potential impact on global trade. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely for any signs of escalation.
