Iran's IRGC seizes Israeli-affiliated vessel with Indian nationals onboard | Oneindia
Iranian state media reported on Saturday that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has seized a container ship near the Strait of Hormuz amid escalating tensions in the region.
This action comes in the aftermath of a deadly Israeli attack on Iran's consulate in Syria, where the IRGC suffered significant casualties, including the loss of seven members, including two generals.
Iran is set to test a new indigenous anti-ballistic missile defense system, aiming to enhance its air defense capabilities against emerging threats. This system is part of the IRGC's broader strategy to strengthen national security and military self-sufficiency. The development was announced during the Payambar-e-A’azam 19 military drills, where various defense tactics, including countering kamikaze drones, were practiced. The upcoming test is expected to impact regional military dynamics and perceptions of adversarial nations.
