Mehr News: "Iran says U.S. navy video and audio are fake"

When it is illegal to question the nonsense put out by the government, the government becomes addicted to nonsense:
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) said on Wednesday that the U.S. video of Sunday's incident in the Strait of Hormoz in the Persian Gulf waters involving Iranian patrol boats and the U.S. warships was archive footage and the audio was fake.

"The footage released by the U.S. navy are file pictures and the audio has been fabricated," an IRGC navy commander told Press TV.

Washington earlier claimed that IRGC speedboats harassed three U.S. navy warships in the Strait of Hormuz on Sunday.

The U.S. navy later released footage purportedly showing Iranian boats menacing U.S. warships in the Persian Gulf.
