US Warns Iran Against Laying Mines in Strait of Hormuz

President Donald Trump warned Iran against laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz. He said the US would use the same capabilities it deployed against alleged drug-running boats in the Caribbean Sea “to permanently eliminate any boat or ship attempting to mine the Hormuz Strait.” Trump also said the US had destroyed 10 “inactive mine laying boats and/or ships” in the last few hours.
