The Iranian military has warned it will target U.S. forces entering the Strait of Hormuz, hours after U.S. officials confirmed a naval operation aimed at guiding commercial vessels out of the waterway.
The warning, issued by Iranian commanders and lawmakers on May 4, comes as the United States prepares to deploy thousands of personnel and military assets in a mission dubbed “Project Freedom.” The operation is designed to restore maritime traffic through one of the world’s most critical energy corridors.
