Iranian Navy Commander Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari said that the Islamic Republic's navy fleet reached Tanzania.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said last November that "the advances in the Navy could not have been as outstanding as it is now; before the Revolution [1979], the sea had been downplayed in its prestige, grandeur, and strategic role in international politics; now however, the Navy have walked a long road, yet many miles should be covered to reach the optimal place".
