The Commander-in-Chief of Arm Forces Ayatollah Khamenei on Monday received a number of commanders of the Navy of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which was held on the occasion of Navy Day.

Attending the welcoming ceremony of the 81st Navy Intelligence-Combat Fleet sent to international waters, Rear-Admiral Shahram Irani stated that any vessel that is in a state of emergency and asks for help, Iran's Navy would be the first acting force on the scene.

In recent years, the Islamic Republic of Iran has sought to increase trade relations with regional and international countries by investing and improving the structure of its ports and strengthening its maritime economy, and good steps have been taken in this regard.
