BREAKING
Araghchi: Iran adopted a constructive approach in its engagement to ensure the European Union and the E3 fully honored their commitments and lifted all sanctions.
Araghchi: After a year of Iran’s full compliance with the agreement, it began implementing gradual, proportionate, and reversible compensatory steps in accordance with its recognized rights under the deal.
Araghchi: Iran demonstrated the utmost restraint in the face of repeated and fundamental violations and made extensive efforts to restore balance and preserve the agreement.
In his letter, Araghchi stated: The E3 failed to fulfill their obligations and instead imposed additional illegal sanctions on Iranian individuals and institutions.
Araghchi: These coercive measures constituted a grave violation of international law and the UN Charter, causing severe disruption in the implementation of the agreement.
Araghchi: Washington initially refrained from fulfilling its commitments, then withdrew from the agreement, reimposed its illegal and unilateral sanctions, and even expanded them.
Araghchi: UN Security Council Resolution 2231 has expired and fully ceased to be in effect as of today, in accordance with its explicit provisions.
Iranian Foreign Ministry: Reimposing sanctions on Iran is illegal

    Commander of the Iranian Navy, Read Admiral Shahram Irani

The Commander of the Iranian Navy, Read Admiral Shahram Irani, said on Friday the US implored Tehran to release two unmanned research sea vessels, confiscated in the Red Sea on August 30.

On August 30, Iran seized and then released two US sea drones for endangering safe navigation in international waters of the Red Sea.

According to Admiral Irani, US officials had to beg the IRGC naval forces to release the sea drones. 

Since then, the Commander says that Iran's naval forces haven't encountered any vessels since the incident - suggesting that the US no longer dares to violate international regulations on maritime security.

Iran's naval forces frequently carry out counter-terrorist patrols across the Malaga Strait and the Bab Al-Mandab, in line with international regulations.

But the presence of undeclared and illegal equipment at sea is enough of a reason for Iran's naval forces to respond accordingly. 

Concerning maritime diplomacy, the commander said Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei issued a decree last year that commands Iran's naval forces to carry out operations with respect and prompt consideration to allies. 

The Commander likewise hailed the contributions of Iran's youth, scientists, and industrialists within the national naval industry.

Earlier today, state-affiliated sources reported that Iran's Navy is scheduled to be equipped with super-heavy submarines in the near future.
