Iranian warships have entered the Mediterranean Sea for the second time since the revolution in 1979, the British Broadcasting Corp. reported.

A destroyer and its supply vessel passed through the Suez Canal and their destination is unclear, the BBC said. An Iranian navy admiral said the mission showed the might of Iran and the country’s message of peace, the BBC reported, citing the official Islamic Republic News Agency.
