近日有消息称，伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队海军部队将在霍尔木兹海峡进行实弹演习。当地时间2月1日，一名伊朗官员表示，伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队并没有进行相关演习的计划。
这名伊朗官员表示，伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队没有在霍尔木兹海峡进行演习的计划，伊朗官方也没有发布过任何这类声明，先前关于伊朗将在此进行实弹演习的消息是“错误的”。
霍尔木兹海峡连接波斯湾和阿曼湾，通过这一海峡运输的石油占全球石油运输总量大约五分之一。霍尔木兹海峡最窄处约33公里，伊朗位于海峡北岸。
总台记者1月29日获悉，多方消息称，伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队海军部队将于2月1日至2日在霍尔木兹海峡进行实弹演习。此后负责中东地区美军行动的美军中央司令部在1月30日发布声明称，美方不会容忍伊朗在霍尔木兹海峡的“不安全行为”，希望伊朗以安全和专业的方式进行演习，避免不必要的风险。
