TEHRAN, September 28. /TASS/. The Iranian army continues pushing the enemy away from the country’s southern borders, forcing it to retreat, Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei said.

"Sooner rather than later, the Arabian Sea will be cleared of them too," he emphasized in a written statement.

He noted that in recent years, two seas in the south of Iran "used to be a theater of operations for enemy forces, but today, amid the painful blows dealt by the brave fighters and defenders of the Strait of Hormuz, they do not venture to move beyond the Arabian Sea."
