Santakom mandates port entry approval
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has confirmed that the clearance operation in the Strait of Hormuz to remove the sea mines planted by Iran months ago has been successfully completed, now allowing safe opening of international shipping lanes. It emphasized that the American forces, which carried out the mission with precision under challenging conditions, maintained the blockade imposed on Iran since mid-July, preventing any vessel from entering or leaving Iranian ports without permission. They provided protection for nearly 1,500 ships passing through the strait, transporting approximately 750 million barrels of oil daily. The statement indicated that the operation was carried out using divers, Navy SEALs, and aerial support from U.S. military forces. It succeeded in forcing 75 ships to turn back and stopping three others that disobeyed orders, with continued vigilance and readiness to use force if necessary.
