Trump plans to remove Strait minefields
U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed that all naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz have been detonated or removed, warning Iran against destroying any ships found to be laying new mines. He explained that the United States is fully monitoring the strait and implementing a zero-tolerance policy toward mine-laying, despite ongoing attacks on ships in the region. These incidents have reduced the amount of oil flowing through the strait from over 20 million barrels per day before the war to about 5 million barrels per day, which constitutes approximately one out of every five barrels consumed worldwide.
