Iran's Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari has dismissed
reports about a warning to Iranian ships in the Gulf of Aden, saying the
flotilla is currently carrying out its mission in the strategic region.
“The 34th fleet of the Iranian Navy is currently in the Gulf of Aden at the entrance to the Bab al-Mandab Strait and is patrolling [the area] and conducting its mission,” Sayyari said on Saturday.
He added that improving security along Iran’s sea communications routes is one of the objectives of the country's naval forces.
The 34th fleet of the Iranian Navy, which comprises the Bushehr logistic vessel and Alborz destroyer, left the country’s southern port city of Bandar Abbas for the Gulf of Aden and the Bab al-Mandab Strait on April 8 in line with the Islamic Republic’s policy of safeguarding naval routes for vessels in the region.
