U.S. sources reveal Iran loaded naval mines onto vessels in the Persian Gulf, raising alarm over a potential blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. This strategic waterway is vital, carrying a large portion of the world’s oil and gas shipments. The mine-loading followed Israel’s strikes on Iran last month, signalling a dangerous escalation in the region. The exact timing and current status of the mines remain unclear, heightening international concern.#iran #straitofhormuz #navalmines #persiangulf #israeliran #middleeastecurity #globaltrade #unitedstates #donaldtrump #netanyahu
