- Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps stated that 26 commercial vessels transited the Strait of Hormuz in coordination with Iranian authorities within the past day despite US port blockades.
- The IRGC declared that any new US or Israeli aggression would prompt a wider war extending beyond the Middle East with devastating retaliation.
- South Korea confirmed the passage of a tanker carrying approximately 2 million barrels of oil through the Strait of Hormuz under Iranian coordination.
- For the first time, the US Senate advanced a resolution to limit President Trump’s war powers on Iran amid ongoing peace negotiations led by Pakistan.
But if aggression against Iran is repeated, the regional war that had been warned of will this time spread beyond the region, and our crushing blows will bring you to ruin in places you cannot even imagine.— IRGC, in a statement

- IRGC spokesperson Hossein Mohebi said Wednesday that Iran’s security doctrine had shifted from defensive to offensive and asymmetrical.
- Mohebi threatened to invade any Middle Eastern state that attacks Iran.
- Araghchi made another diplomatic attempt conditional on strong evidence of Washington’s sincere desire to build trust and reach a just solution.
- In a letter to the UN, Iran called the US naval blockade a flagrant violation of international law and the UN Charter.
"We announced that if a country attacked us, we would respond to it," he said. "Now, we say if a country attacks us, we will respond to it, and we will invade. Our doctrine will no longer be only offensive and will become asymmetrical. We will attack the enemy in such a way that it will understand the intensity of our action."— Hossein Mohebi, IRGC spokesperson, about Iran's security doctrine shifting from defensive to offensive and asymmetrical
