JAKARTA - Iran's missile launcher is directed at the target of American warships stationed in the Middle East and is ready to sink them all if the US attacks Iran.

"The US will definitely fail in its naval blockade, just as it failed in its historic attempt to open the Strait of Hormuz. Pressure must be increased. Our missiles are aimed at those ships and we will sink them all," said member of the Iranian Council of Expediency, Mohsen Rezaee. as quoted by the Tasnim News Agency reported by ANTARA from Sputnik/RIA Novosti, Thursday, April 16.

The politician said personally he did not believe an extension of the current ceasefire with the US would benefit Iran.

On February 28, the US and Israel launched an attack on targets in Iran, including in Tehran, which caused damage and civilian casualties. Iran also retaliated by attacking Israeli territory and American military facilities in the Middle East.

Many countries in the region have closed their airspace completely or partially due to the risk of missile and drone attacks.

Meanwhile, on Saturday (11/4), Iran and the US held talks in Islamabad, Pakistan, after US President Donald Trump announced he had reached an agreement with Tehran on a two-week ceasefire.

The next day, Sunday (12/4), the head of the US delegation, who is also the US Vice President J. D. Vance, said Iran and the US failed to reach an agreement in the negotiations. The US delegation also returned empty-handed.
