U.S. Central Command: All shipping lanes in the Strait of Hormuz are free of naval mines.

BlockBeats news, October 29: US Central Command: In recent days and weeks, Iranian-controlled media have reported Iranian claims that commercial vessels struck mines while transiting the Strait of Hormuz. These claims are false.

In fact, all internationally recognized major transit channels in the Strait of Hormuz have been cleared of mines by US forces and will remain mine-free. Thousands of commercial vessels have safely used these transit channels and continue to use them.
