美国中央司令部（CENTCOM）周二驳斥了伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队（IRGC）关于其控制霍尔木兹海峡并将击沉任何靠近的美国海军舰艇的声称。
The US military’s Central Command (CENTCOM) on Tuesday rejected claims by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) that it controls the Strait of Hormuz and would sink any approaching US Navy warships.
“IRGC海军司令根本没有海军。美军及地区伙伴显然控制着霍尔木兹海峡，”CENTCOM在美国社交媒体平台上表示。它驳斥了伊朗海军司令的言论，即德黑兰控制着这一战略性国际咽喉要道，并宣称美军已帮助海湾伙伴在周一通过该海峡运输了超过1900万桶原油。
"IRGC's navy commander has no navy. American forces and regional partners clearly control the Strait of Hormuz," CENTCOM said on US social media company It disputed an Iranian navy commander’s remarks that Tehran controls the strategic international chokepoint, declaring that US forces had helped Gulf partners transport more than 19 million barrels of crude oil through the strait on Monday.
该声明是在华盛顿与德黑兰就海上安全和霍尔木兹海峡控制权紧张局势加剧之际发布的，该海峡是全球石油运输的关键通道。
The statement came amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran about maritime security and control of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical passage for global oil shipments.
