A top commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says Iran will not retreat from its interests in the Arash gas field.

At Monday's news conference, in response to the statement of the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council, which claims that Kuwait and Saudi Arabia own Arash field, Kanaani said: "We have stated our positions based on international laws many times. Making a baseless and one-sided claim will naturally not create any rights for the claimant".
