IRGC Navy taunts Trump over Hormuz challenge

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has issued a direct rhetorical challenge to the United States, questioning President Donald Trump's resolve. In a statement, the IRGC Navy asked, "If Trump is sincere about destroying our naval forces, why doesn't he send his ships to open the Strait of Hormuz?" This taunt comes amid a tense US naval blockade of the strait and ongoing Iranian prohibitions on maritime traffic. The exchange highlights the escalating war of words and military posturing in the critical global oil chokepoint.
