The lost mines have prevented Iran from quickly complying with President Trump’s demand to allow more ships to pass through the waterway.
Likely a consequence of the US killing the people who were laying mines.
So say US ‘officials’. They expected the ceasefire to lead to immediate clearing of mines placed along shipping routes through the straights.
I think these officials are full of shit. NYT current level of reporting scrutiny is also shit.
And how was Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Iraq & Afghanistan left…super clean, right?
Sounds like the beginning to Godzilla -1

Schrodinger’s mines. The minelayers were all destroyed before they were active, there was no evidence of mines at that time. Now there are apparently lost mines, so the US will do a big favour to all their friends by sweeping them up.
