Strait of Hormuz

(Worthy News) – Iran, Russia, and China began four days of naval drills in the Gulf of Oman Friday, following Iran’s activation of advanced centrifuges that enrich uranium at greater speeds.

State news said the drills, launched from the southeastern Iranian port city of Chahbahar, were designed to show that US efforts to strangle the regime had failed.

“Its effect will be to show that Iran cannot be isolated,” Iranian flotilla chief Rear Admiral Gholamreza Tahani said, state television echoing him by calling the Russian, Chinese, and Iranian alliance “the new triangle of power in the sea.”

Iran has also begun to use IR-6 centrifuges and is testing IR-9s, both banned by the crumbling 2015 nuclear deal, that experts estimate would allow it to obtain a nuclear weapon in under a year.
