"The man who was directly responsible for the terrorist operation of mining and blocking the Strait of Hormuz to shipping was blown up and eliminated, he claimed."
"Since the start of the joint US-Israeli war on Iran on February 28, Israel has announced the assassination of several top Iranian officials, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and the Islamic Republic's powerful security chief, Ali Larijani."
"Al Jazeera's Tohid Asadi, reporting from Tehran, said there was no official Iranian confirmation yet of Tangsiri's killing. But if it's true it's going to be another major blow for a country that has already experienced a lot of military commanders being killed since the war began."
"Moreover, in recent days, Israeli forces have carried out several strikes targeting the naval assets of Iran. Last week, Israeli airstrikes hit several Iranian naval ships in the Caspian Sea, including ones equipped with missile systems, support vessels, and patrol craft."
Israel's Defence Minister announced the killing of Alireza Tangsiri, commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards' navy, in a precise air strike. This operation targeted other senior naval officers as well. Tangsiri was allegedly responsible for mining and blocking the Strait of Hormuz. Since February 28, Israel has claimed the assassination of several high-ranking Iranian officials. Reports indicate that the killing of Tangsiri would be a significant setback for Iran, which has already lost multiple military leaders during the ongoing conflict.
