Washington Says Strait of Hormuz Secured as Iranian Military Capabilities Neutralized
The U.S. administration said it had secured control over maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, announcing that shipping routes had been cleared of mines allegedly laid by Iran and that U.S. vessels could safely transit the strategic waterway
White House adviser Stephen Miller said the military operations had effectively dismantled Iran’s naval and air capabilities, as well as its radar systems and military command-and-control infrastructure
Miller described the outcome as a major military achievement for President Donald Trump, calling it one of the most significant shifts in modern warfare.
