We stressed that the Iranian nation will continue to stand for its rights, and this was emphasised in all the meetings.

The United States must return to its commitments and abide by the provisions of the memorandum of understanding. After that, we can move out of this situation, because all countries are concerned that the war should end as soon as possible.

We explained that the solution is completely clear and specific: America must return to its commitments and to the very agreement its president signed. In that case, everything can be put on the right track.

While the Fajr-5’s estimated payload capacity is light compared to U.S. or Chinese naval mines, the mines the rockets could deliver are still heavier than diver-delivered limpet mines and could conceivably disable a ship if struck by enough mines from the field.

Most importantly, this field could be delivered rapidly and with little warning. Even though the explosive capacity of this mine individually is small, the psychological impact from inflicting minor damage on a small number of merchants could still be enough to force shipping companies to avoid the area.
