IRGC Navy: Bandar Khayran, Oman is immunity border in Strait of Hormuz

An IRGC Navy political assistant declared Bandar Khayran, Oman as the 'immunity border' in the Strait of Hormuz, signaling a potential red line for Iranian naval operations. This rhetoric, while not new, escalates pressure on Oman and Gulf states amid ongoing tensions. The statement's ambiguity—whether it implies a military exclusion zone or a diplomatic claim—remains unclear, but it underscores Iran's assertive posture in the strait.
