US contracts firms to clear mines in Strait of Hormuz
Axios reported that the U.S. Navy has contracted private companies to remove or detonate mines in the Strait of Hormuz. American unmanned submarines successfully surveyed the strait and identified more than 100 objects suspected to be mines. Officials confirmed that the United States is working to ensure navigation in the area, and President Trump stated that the Navy informed him that all mines would be removed or detonated in international waters to guarantee the flow of oil through the strait, which is at the center of the conflict between the United States and Iran.
