Iran was poised and ready to retaliate against a recent US attack on the Iranian Touska container vessel in the Gulf of Oman, the Iranian Armed Forces’ Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters stated.
"But due to the presence of some family members of the ship’s crew on board, an operational response was delayed so as to protect their lives and security."
Iranian forces will conduct the necessary action against the “terrorist US military” as soon as the safety of the families and crew members is fully ensured, the statement added.
