Video: US troops would become ‘shark food’ in Gulf invasion — Iran

Iran’s Armed Forces spokesperson, Ebrahim Zolfaqari from the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, has issued a warning in a video statement today, threatening that any US ground operation would end disastrously for American troops.
Zolfaqari directly addressed recent threats from US President Donald Trump, accusing him of being manipulated by Israel.
“US President Trump has repeatedly threatened Iran with ground operations and the occupation of some islands in the Persian Gulf.
“There is no doubt that the US President, under pressure from the terrorist organisation Mossad due to his background in the Epstein case, has become a pawn of the Israeli Prime Minister in the war and aggression against Iran,” he said.
He dismissed the rhetoric as hollow, adding, “The US President has proven that the only language he understands is the language of force.”
In a vivid escalation, Zolfaqari vowed retaliation, “In response to Trump’s recent threats of ground operations or occupation of any part of Iranian territory, which is merely a wish, we declare: The warriors of Islam have long been awaiting such actions to prove that aggression and occupation will only result in humiliating captivity, dismemberment, and disappearance of the aggressors, and that American commanders and soldiers will become good food for the sharks of the Persian Gulf.”
The remarks come amid heightened US-Israel tensions with Iran-backed groups like Hezbollah and the Houthis, who have disrupted regional shipping and stability through proxy attacks.
