IRGC Troublemaking with Frigates - Galrahn, Information Dissemination

As we have mentioned many times on the blog in the past, events are taking place at sea in the Middle East that are often not reported in the media. The 5th Fleet in particular keeps information very close, and rarely does it see the light of day without a political motivation, and even then it is some source in Washington leaking information, not 5th Fleet. Other nations tend to follow a similar policy. This particular incident is flying pretty low under the radar. The IRGC appears to be still playing its tricks in the Persian Gulf, but with tensions with Iran very high it is noteworthy this report went unreported until now. Note the timing, this was during the recent missile tests by Iran, which coincided with major Iranian Navy maneuvers* in the Strait of Hormuz. Guess these IRGC dudes got left behind, and had nothing better to do. Iranian Revolutionary Guard speedboats menaced the Devonport-based warship HMS Chatham as weapons tests ordered by the Tehran regime to deter strikes on its nuclear weapons facilities raised tension in the Gulf, it can be revealed.
