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.
