U.S. Central Command posted on X yesterday that, “US forces eliminated multiple Iranian naval vessels, March 10, including 16 minelayers near the Strait of Hormuz,” posting an accompanying video showing some of the strikes.
The military published the figure and unclassified footage of some of the vessels after Donald Trump warned Iran against laying mines in the critical waterway, reported The Daily Mail. President Trump has previously said he is ‘not afraid’ to use military force to keep the passage open, as oil prices steady following a rapid surge over the weekend.
