Claims to have destroyed 16 ships near the Strait of Hormuz
The US military said it has destroyed 16 Iranian mine-laying ships near the Strait of Hormuz. This waterway is one of the most important oil routes in the world, through which about 20 percent of the world’s oil supply passes. However, US President Donald Trump said on social media that so far there is no report that Iran has planted explosives in this waterway.
The US Army has also released some videos with the claim of destroying these ships, which have been made public. This step was taken at a time when Trump had warned that if Iran did not immediately remove any mines laid in this waterway, then America would launch an attack like never seen before.
