In the Name of the Highest

I offer my congratulations on the powerful, honorable return of the 75th Fleet of the IRI Army's Naval Forces from their momentous naval mission in the Atlantic Ocean, which has been carried out for the first time in Iran's naval history.

Praise God the Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran is present on the scene today with its insightful, zealous, and untiring staff. It is prepared to strive for the sake of the glorious Islamic Revolution's lofty goals. Preserve and promote this capability.

Express my gratitude and appreciation to the commander and each of the dear staff of the Fleet.

Iran's 75th Navy Flotilla, including the country's largest warship, IRINS Makran, and destroyer IRINS Sahand was officially welcomed by top Iranian commanders.

The two-ship Iranian Navy group returned home after traveling 44,000 km in the international waters through the West Coast of Africa and the Baltic Sea this summer and has returned home.

Iran's largest warship, IRINS Makran, and fully indigenized destroyer IRINS Sahand left the Middle East in May for a naval mission in the Indian Ocean, South Atlantic, and North Atlantic after 133 days of navigation to enhance naval authority, securing naval lines, and strengthening maritime diplomacy.
