General Razmjou stressed that the IRGC's Second Naval Zone which is equipped with different advanced equipment monitors all maritime traffic in the Persian Gulf.

In relevant remarks last month, Iranian Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari underlined that his forces along with the IRGC Navy are monitoring any moves inside and beyond the country's territorial waters and will not allow alien vessels to approach Iran's borders.
