Ali Mohammadi, political deputy of the IRGC Navy, made the remarks at a ceremony commemorating martyrs in the northern Iranian city of Babol, Mazandaran Province, highlighting the force’s indigenous capabilities and readiness in regional waters. ​ He said the IRGC Navy’s power has been built on a combination of faith, experience, and strategic planning. According to Mohammadi, Iranian forces have gained extensive experience through years of operations and training along the country’s coasts, islands, and maritime areas. ​ Mohammadi also referred to US efforts to weaken the Iranian people’s resolve, saying Washington should not assume that destroying infrastructure such as bridges or roads could force Iran to surrender. ​ He pointed to the IRGC Navy’s continued presence in difficult conditions, including on Farsi Island, describing the small strategic island as an example of Iran’s sustained maritime presence. ​ The official said Iranian forces have trained for both conventional and unconventional warfare for years and are prepared for a direct confrontation at sea. ​ Referring to remarks by US President Donald Trump about unfinished work regarding Iran, Mohammadi issued a strong warning, saying Iran also has unfinished business with him. 📲 ​
