The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), characterized by the source as a terror organization, issued a statement following U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) strikes on Sirik in Iran's Hormozgan Province:

"We assert that this aggression will not go unanswered, and a swift and decisive response will be delivered at a time and place of our choosing."

The statement signals a potential escalation in tensions between the U.S. and Iran.
