美国中央司令部（CENTCOM）周三驳斥了一名伊朗官员的说法，即美军正在对伊朗水手使用威胁性语言。
The US military’s Central Command (CENTCOM) on Wednesday rejected an Iranian official’s claim that the American military was using threatening language against Iranian sailors.
它还为其对伊朗的封锁进行辩护，并指责德黑兰在地区水域袭击平民船员。
It also defended its blockade against Iran and accused Tehran of attacking civilian mariners in regional waters.
在发布于美国社交媒体公司X的声明中，CENTCOM将伊朗驻国际海事组织大使的说法描述为虚假，该大使称美军正在对平民船员造成“严重压力和心理压力”。
In a statement posted on US social media company X, CENTCOM described the claim by Iran’s ambassador to the International Maritime Organization that US forces were causing “serious stress and psychological pressure” on civilian crews as false.
伊朗上周向国际海事组织提出正式抗议，称美军正在滥用紧急频道，将其变成“对平民船员的军事威慑和心理压力的工具”。CENTCOM表示，美军对伊朗的封锁已持续数月，且是以专业方式传达的。
Iran filed a formal protest last week with the International Maritime Organization, saying US military forces are misusing an emergency channel, turning it into “an instrument of military intimidation and psychological pressure against civilian crews.”CENTCOM said the US blockade against Iran has been in place for months and was communicated professionally.
它还指责伊朗是“在地区水域中唯一攻击过境平民船员的国家”，同时表示商业交通“在美军及地区伙伴的协调保护下继续通过霍尔木兹海峡”。声明未提供有关争议中所引用的具体指控或事件的细节。
It also accused Iran of being the “only country attacking civilian mariners transiting regional waters,” while saying commercial traffic “continues to flow through the Strait of Hormuz with coordinated protection from U.S. forces and regional partners.”The statement did not provide details about the specific allegations or incidents cited in the dispute.
该声明发布之际，伊朗和美军在战略海峡的航行问题上仍存在分歧，且海上紧张局势持续升级。
The statement comes as Iran and the US remain at odds about navigation through the strategic strait amid heightened maritime tensions.
