Iran-IRGC Marine Parade Commemorating Persian Gulf National Day
Basij paramilitary force speed boats are sailing along the Persian Gulf near the Bushehr nuclear power plant during the IRGC marine parade commemorating the Persian Gulf National Day in the south of Iran, on April 29, 2024. The Persian Gulf National Day is celebrated on the 10th of Ordibehesht in the Iranian calendar, which usually falls in late April or early May. It commemorates the expulsion of the Portuguese from the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf in 1622 by the Safavid forces led by Imam Quli Khan under the command of Shah Abbas I.
