A senior Iranian military advisor said on Monday the country's armed forces will not let any oil be exported through the Strait of Hormuz.

Ebrahim Jabbari, an advisor to the chief commander of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), made the remarks in an interview with state-run IRIB TV while warning that the country's armed forces will take action against any movement by oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz.

He said the Strait of Hormuz has been closed, and the naval forces of the IRGC and Iranian army will set any ship seeking to pass through it on fire.

Jabbari said oil pipelines in the region will also be targeted by Iran and "we will not let oil be exported from the region."

He added that the United States is dependent on the West Asia region's oil, "but they should know that not a single drop of oil will be supplied to them."
