Tehran. Ramil Mammadli – APA. “If the United States and Israel attack on Iran, we will close the Strait of Hormuz. 40 percent of the world’s oil is shipped through this strait. We hope we will not be obliged to close Bara bay or Strait of Hormuz,” deputy chief of Iranian Armed Forces headquarters Mesud Jazairi said, APA reports.
Commenting on the statements that Iran would close Strait of Hormuz, Vice-Admiral Maurizio Gemignani, commander of the Allied Maritime Component Command Naples of NATO said in Kuwait that it was a “fantasy hypothesis”. Taking a stance on Maurizio Gemignani’s statement, Mesud Jazairi said Iranian fleet is able to shoot all the targets in 300km-distance and will not allow a ship to pass the strait if necessary.
