Trump: US destroyed Iranian 'mine-laying' vessels The US  military destroyed 16 Iranian mine-laying vessels near the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday, the US Central Command said in a statement, as President Donald Trump warned that any mines laid in the Strait by Iran must be removed immediately. Trump previously said the US had "completely destroyed" 10 inactive mine-laying vessels. In apparent response to media reports that Iran had begun laying mines in the waterway, a key passage for oil shipments, Trump posted on Truth Social: "If Iran has put out any mines in the Hormuz Strait, and we have no reports of them doing so, we want them removed, IMMEDIATELY!"

Trump seeks to lower oil prices with Strait of Hormuz pressure  The Hill

US Navy escorts could help increase the flow of tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, but American warships accompanying slow-moving commercial vessels would face threats including mines, missiles and drones in the narrow waterway bordering Iran. Iran has threatened to block oil exports via the key maritime chokepoint -- through which nearly 20 percent of the world's crude usually transits -- in response to the US-Israeli war against the Islamic republic.
