Iranian IRGC Cargo Ship Attacked In Red Sea: Report

Click to see full-size image

A cargo ship belonging to Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) was attacked in the Red Sea off the coast of Eritrea, this was reported by Al Arabiya TV, citing unnamed sources.

Iran’s semi-official Tasnim news agency identified the ship as the Saviz.

“The vessel Iran Saviz has been stationed in the Red Sea for the past few years to support Iranian commandos sent on the commercial vessel (anti-piracy) escort missions,” Tasnim News reported.

Al Arabiya cited the sources as saying the vessel was attacked off the coast of Eritrea and was affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, but provided no evidence to support the assertion.

According to New York Times, an American official who spoke on condition of anonymity said that the Israelis had called the attack retaliation for earlier Iranian strikes on Israeli vessels, and that the Saviz had been damaged below the waterline. The vessel’s precise location in the Red Sea was not immediately clear.

It was the latest in a reported series of attacks on Israeli- and Iranian-owned cargo ships since late February in which Tel Aviv and Tehran accused each other of responsibility.

The incidents have occurred since U.S. President Joe Biden took office in January with a commitment to rejoin world powers’ 2015 nuclear deal with Iran

Iran and the United States on April 6th launched indirect talks in Vienna that included the other powers on ways to revive the deal. Both Iran and the United States called the talks “constructive.”

Earlier on April 6th, before news broke about the attack, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in comments to lawmakers of his right-wing Likud party, said there should be no return to the “dangerous” nuclear accord and added:

“In parallel we must continue to fend off Iranian belligerence in our region. And this threat is no theoretical matter. I’m not uttering it rhetorically. We must take action in the face of the fanatical regime in Iran, which simply threatens to wipe us off the face of the earth.”

According to a US intelligence report, Israel has targeted at least a dozen vessels bound for Syria and mostly carrying Iranian oil out of concern that petroleum profits are funding terrorism in the Middle East. Israel has also targeted several alleged Iranian convoys of weapons and military equipment going to Syria and Lebanon.

Israel is always behind this

Freemon Sandlewould

Israel attacks both side’s ships. Gives me an idea. Perhaps they could have a war with themselves and leave the rest of the world out of it.

That’s not something to gloat about. Israel has the highest covid cases per million in Asia despite being +80% vaccinated and not far behind Iran in deaths per million despite Iran being unable to vaccinate due to sanctions. Israel is smaller, overpopulated and older, be careful what you wish for.

I show here what really bothers the ordinary Iranian citizen.

you saying this from US hahaha keep up your own business there

I personally know some of the very talented doctors who fled Iran.

Ahson

No they didn’t flee, they just wanted more money. Same as you.

Free man

I have never lived in Iran. My parents left before I was born. A nice excuse you gave yourself, it’s not all about the money.

Marius Vn

Ahson

No, it’s not an excuse. Just remember, its always about the money. People got reasonable lives in Iran even today, nobody is homeless or without healthcare and there is access to good education in a relatively crime free society. If the sanctions are gone (which looks to be the case), Iran will become a mid income economy again.

Just Me

LOL, real Iranians ROFLMAO.

Captain Freedom

who gives a shit… certainly not the Iranians…….LOL

Free man

So you think the Iranians don’t care about the sick and dead from Corona. You are tragically funny.

Just Me

An Iranian knowledge-based company has been able to produce high-quality laser and photonics equipment to stand among the five best manufacturers in the world.

Laser and photonics equipment have a variety of applications in different industries in the world.

Precise cuts in the automotive industry, steel industry as well as medical and dental fields are some of the applications of laser equipment produced by the Iranian knowledge-based company.

In recent years, after the US reimposed sanctions against Iran, restrictions turned into a bridge for self-sufficiency in the production of various equipment in laser industry.

After the Iranian researchers gained access to the technology, significant amounts of foreign currency was saved. The Alexandrite laser, for instance, is worth over $100,000 for a foreign model, but it is built domestically at the price of $50,000 to $60,000.

Iran in a ceremony in September unveiled a plant which mass-produces laser tubes with applications in industries and tools and medical equipment production.

Captain Freedom

The sick and dead from a disease that has a 99.97% recovery rate…. or just is the renamed flu. I like to point out that Belarus is a country with no -lockdown -masks -social distancing -vaccine

And guess what? THEY’RE ALRIGHT. So stick your coof-1984 horseshit where the sun doesn’t shine. I know your last hope in defeating those darn mullahz is that Iran will just disappear by itself because they arent afraid enough of the sneeze and cough. You will have to wait a looooong time… ahahaha

Just Me

Iran has done very well dealing with the so-called virus, albeit with assistance from allies like Russia and China. Now it is manufacturing its own vaccination and is on top of things.

Captain Freedom

It makes them independent from the gene therapy shot, thats good. At least countries like Iran, Russia, China don’t manufacture medicine strictly for profit like western Rockefeller controlled big pharma does. Most importantly its the people who mainly dont trust the government and wouldnt take that stuff anyway. Unlike the mindless drones in the west (including Isntreal, those poor bastards)

Just Me

You are absolutely right, also keep in mind that Iran has a very advanced public health system which even many US states tried to emulate.

What Can Mississippi Learn From Iran?

“When the Iranian system was developed in the 1980s, there were no doctors in rural Iran,” Miller says. “And this is similar to the problem in the delta today.”

The Iranian reforms were relatively inexpensive to implement there. It was the early ’80s, just after the Ayatollah Khomeini’s return and the Iranian revolution, which had promised the country’s rural villagers the kind of social justice that had been lacking under the shah. At the time, more than half the population lived outside major cities, in or around more than 60,000 villages. The Iranians built “health houses” to minister to 1,500 people who lived within at most an hour’s walking distance. Each house is a 1,000-square-foot hut equipped with examination rooms and sleeping quarters and staffed by community health workers — one man and one or more women who have been given basic training in preventive health care. They advise on nutrition and family planning, take blood pressure, keep track of who needs prenatal care, provide immunization and monitor environmental conditions like water quality. Crucially, in order to gain trust, the health workers come from the villages they serve.

People who become very sick, or require surgical procedures, are referred up through a single, multitiered system: from health house to rural health center to district hospital. The integrated nature of the system is what makes it unique. Today, 17,000 health houses serve 23 million rural Iranians. Health disparities between rural and urban Iranians have narrowed; the Iranians have reduced rural infant mortality by 75 percent and lowered the birthrate. Iran’s reforms won praise from the World Health Organization, which has long advocated preventive, primary care. The Iranian universal health care system is the pride of the revolution.

Captain Freedom

This is real healthcare, often times a human can be healed (or preventevly treated) just by adjusting lifestyle, fitness and nutrition. Treatment should be only as invasive as necessary, strengthening the bodies own immune system and using natural remedies could solve so many problems in the west. Over here in Germany, America and the rest its only more surgeries = more money. Funny how they closed down 22 hospitals last year in Germany, such pandemic. They are privately owned and NEED sick people to continue operating. Its just business. Thats why everyone who thinks for themselves doesnt trust the men in white and even sees them as the enemy, because if you trust them you might end up with back pains or in a wheelchair for the rest of your life… oh and broke. I avoid them as much as possible and Im doing great, but those NPCs even run to the doctor when they have headaches….LMAO.

Big Pharma doesn’t make money with healing people, they make money by TREATING people. Since the panicdemic they also ceased doing cancer surgeries and such, so they have been massively killing people indirectly since, its like the Nazi euthanasia program all over again. If you think about it, the lockdowns (especailly in cold and dark europe) are really there to fuck our immune systems up, you’re not allowed to got the gym, do sports, go to some country where the sun shines… just creates more clients for Pharma!

I hear from Russians living near Moscow that they casually fly to Egypt with no restrictions…..LOL. Makes you feel like an idiot sitting in the darkness surrounded by dumbass pensioners fearing for their lifes standing in line in front of the vax center…

Just Me

Exactly, the western medical system is geared towards making money and doesn’t give a sh1t about the poor. Big pharma makes sure that people get sick, so they can sell expensive snake oil medicines that have more side-effects. The best health care is universal access preventative care and education. Stay safe though.

Garga

I’ve read a couple of articles about that and the positive effect of implementing Iranian experience in rural Mississippi (which is almost all of it!) and the comment section was very interesting. Many commenters wrote they prefer to die and not learn anything from eye-ran!

Free man

Why would Americans want to learn anything from the people who are shouting “Death to America” on their streets and Parliament?

Ahson

The Iranian healthcare system absolutely blows away the scam artist corrupt to the core US health system any god damn day!

Another desperate blank post. WTF is this LOL

This is what really bothers the real Iranians.

Oh, by the way, the fake State of Israel forced the mRNA not vaccines on it’s beloved pretenders. Astra/Zeneca, experimental gene therapy, being tested during this fake emergency, COVID pandemic. This is DNA altering shit, irreversible, and what will be altered, and by how much is not known. It contains nanotechnology tracking, and other fun stuff. This not vaccine, is designed as a de-population drug, it protects nothing from the terrible COVID virus. Wild, or any of the man-made patented derivitives. Your Government wants you dead, same as US Government wants US citizens dead. Welcome to goyworld. Russia, China, Iran, produced actual vaccines for their people, and any worldwide that wanted an actual vaccine, instead of a means to kill off their people, as defined under UN Agenda 21/2030 Sustainability Development Guidelines, the Globalist plans to reduce world population 90% by 2030. Operating since 1992, when 169 countries signed on to this agenda of genocide. Got your shots ?

Just Me

Iran has some of the most modern universal health care system in the world that helped beat the corona virus.

Ahson

its a whole heck of a lot worse in the US fool. You are aware of this reality aren’t you? Nobody even gives a shit about the US anymore……..1000’s still dying daily in the US. Death toll to surpass 600k in a few days.

Just Me

They are dying like dogs on the streets as the Jew big pharma rips off the rednecks. US spent over $15 trillion in lost wars and can’t even provide clean water or basic health care to its wretched people.

Ahson

Just read on Press TV that 40k kids are now orphaned in the US from covid. The country’s falling apart. They are the new third world, and its all downhill from here on. All the old, the fatties, poor/ low ncome and street people are all dead. Nobody cares now about 1000’s dying daily across the US.

Just Me

It is sad how low the US has sunk, and the dumb brainwashed delusional bastards still want to wage wars and create global conflict. Seriously, the Jews are curse for the US in particular. The scum have bankrupted the US with fantasies of global domination. Now China is tops and can outspend the bankrupt US in every field, unlike the broken USSR. The US is finished.

Free man

The US average is about 3 million vaccinations a day. The corona is fading in the US and UK, check the data.

John Wallace

The reason the data showed a drop was because they CHANGED the testing by lowering the threshold to call it positive, The said that the bar was set too high thus showing too many false positives. By dropping the threshold the numbers of positives each day dropped which shows you don’t need a vaccine to stop the virus. Just change the testing data until you have Zero positives.

John Wallace

Brazil’s new mutation is exploding in numbers , is nearly 3 times more contagious and more deadly especially for those under 50.. It bet they are already breathing that variant in in US of A.. Best of all the vaccine doesn’t help … Numbers exploding across Europe.. Come back in a couple of months with your updated data ..

Blas de Lezo

Jpost: lsraeI notifies US it attacked lranian ship in Red Sea. l do not think the lGRC wiII notify anybody when an UUV sink a JudenJunk.

Free man

What in the history of the Iranian responses to Israeli actions led you to think that the Iranians are capable of thinking about sinking an Israeli ship?

Just Me

Grow up kid.

Free man

These are the facts. Personal insults won’t change them.

Just Me

I don’t insult anyone, but you seem obsessed with Iran. The FACT is that Iran is now a nuclear power allied with China its economy is poised to be top 10 in a decade. It has the most stable government in the region and its military power is about to take a quantum leap. I feel sorry for you MEK losers and you will die in foreign lands as puppets of Zionists. Iran is destined for greatness.

Free man

What has been in the last 41 years will continue in the future, as long as the mullahs are in power. Iran cannot thrive under an extremist religious regime of mullahs.

Just Me

The mullahs are great for Iran and that is what the majority want. Iran is a conservative family oriented nationalistic Shia Muslim nation and most people are proud of it. The government is hybrid democracy and very stable. No country on the planet has ever withstood such adversity and come on top. Soon we will have a very nationalistic government of either Sepah general Deghan or Saeed Mohammad. Just watch this space and don’t hate yourself so much, it is very unbecoming.

Free man

Again personal insults instead of good arguments.

Just Me

What is is point? You are a bitter individual and live in a world of delusions. It is a shame for sure. Iranians love the government and that is why it can not be overthrown by anyone. For 42 years vatan foroush (sell out traitors) have been barking about regime change and the converse has happened. Nothing can harm Iran and you can it to your nearest Jew bank. Good luck kiddo.

Jim Allen

Who’s facts ? Have you not been paying attention ? Iran is the strong regional military power in the Middle East, and very capable of reaching out, and touching Tel-Aviv. To a flat, and level gradient, in a very short time. You’re light years behind the curve, troll.

Free man

In talk and threats you are world champions, no doubt.

rightiswrong rightiswrong

lol, nice one Jim.

Jim Allen

What exactly gives you the idea Iran is not capable of sinking an Israeli ship ? Or, destroying all the pretenders squatting on stolen lands in Palestine have constructed since their unlawful arrival in the “promised lands.” God has not given His permission for the chosen ones to return. They’re still 86’d, yet there they squat.

Free man

“What exactly gives you the idea Iran is not capable of sinking an Israeli ship ?” – Crippling fear. They can’t even bear the thought of any kind of direct war against Israel. The Israelis are still awaiting revenge for the Netanz bombing, the assassination of the nuclear scientists and hundreds of other Israeli operations.

Just Me

The reality is the Zionist scum have lost to Iran in Syria and the wider region and are now desperate to derail the JCPOA. It really does not matter anymore as Iran is now allied with China, the world’s only real superpower as Pepe Escobar has very eloquently explained. In June, real nationalistic hardliners are coming to power in Iran and they will put the Zionists in their place. The die has been cast.

Free man

The funny thing is that the Israelis inform you in advance who they will kill and what they will bomb: https://twitter.com/ELINTNews/status/1379470770125090817

Yahudi using subs to sneak up at night and plant limpet mines from small inflatable boats. They did the same shit in Persian gulf to sawdi/ UAE tankers. Everyone knows.

That’s what you get.

yeah but you get busted false flagging every time……lol

things like this is why it is absolutely of imperative importance that the jews’ illegal occupation of palestine is ended and the jews scattered around the world, diaspora 2.0, but only to countries that accept a new influx of jews (just yankeestan left then). jews are superfluous to the world’s needs and can thus be disposed of finally and for goooooood. what a larf.

The new Paykaap III class are far more deadly and can hit 80 knots are armed with 2 Nasr or Kowsar SSM that can hit targets 200-300 kms away. Almost 150 are now operational and new version is coming soon with longer range missiles.

Peykaap III crafts are equipped with two single anti-ship missile launchers with Kowsar or Nasr which rely on internal guidance and active terminal homing to 38 kilometres (21 nmi) at 0.8 Mach. It is also compatible with Chinese C-701/FL-10 torpedoes. Their secondary armament is two 12.7mm machine guns that are now being replaced with Iranian made 20mm Asefeh rotary cannon for aerial defence and land targets. Naval experts believe these are fastest missile boats in the world.

Potato Man

The fuking irony, “The vessel was a civilian ship stationed there to secure the region against pirates” I mean can you blame the thieves of the world to not attack anti-pirates ship? It is clear the bitch of the world is crying…again – Iran and US is talking again we see how that end and it seem BiBi can’t stop being clown for a day.

RT:https://www.rt.com/news/520329-iran-cargo-ship-attack/

Iran has confirmed that its cargo vessel MV Saviz, anchored off Yemen in the Red Sea, has been attacked, sustaining “minor damage.” According to Tehran, the vessel has been used as a logistics hub for anti-piracy operations.

Also, you know the rules and so do I, you hit you get punch back…it has been like that between Iran – Zion+Wahhabi+yankees blocks for years.
