Centcom chief says Hormuz routes remain clear as Iran reports interceptions

Strait of Hormuz, Iran ·

Admiral Brad Cooper, head of US Central Command, said in a video posted on the command's X account that the main international shipping routes through the Strait of Hormuz are clear of Iranian sea mines. He said commercial vessels are sailing freely through the strategic waterway.

The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow waterway between Iran and Oman's Musandam peninsula, linking the Gulf to the open sea and carrying a large share of the world's seaborne oil trade.
