U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM - Statement from Adm. Brad Cooper, CENTCOM commander:
"The death of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps - Navy (IRGC-N) commander, Admiral Alireza Tangsiri, from an Israeli airstrike makes the region safer. Tangsiri commanded the IRGC-N for eight years, during which time the IRGC harassed thousands of innocent merchant mariners, attacked hundreds of vessels with one way attack drones and missiles, and killed countless innocent civilians. He was designated as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist by the U.S. Treasury in June 2019, with additional secondary sanctions added in 2024 related to drone development.
Since the commencement of Operation Epic Fury, 92% of the large ships in the Iranian Navy have been eliminated. As a result, IRG-N has completely lost their ability to project power in the Middle East or around the world. Now, with the loss of their long-time leader, the IRGC-N is on an irreversible decline.
U.S. military strikes on the IRG-N will continue. Therefore, we call on every
Iranian serving in the IRGC-N to immediately abandon their post and return
home to avoid further risk of unnecessary injury or death."
