Iran Declares Strait of Hormuz Open, but Warns of Risk From Mines
They had a hell of a nerve laying mines in a major waterway that they don't own
“Those technical restrictions are very much connected to the wartime condition, and it takes time to be removed,” Khatibzadeh said, adding that each vessel should make “necessary arrangements” with the Iranian authorities to be able to pass through the strait safely.In a post on X on April 9 local time, the Iranian Consulate in Mumbai warned of “possible anti-ship mines” and shared a map showing a mined area in the main channel of the strait.

We bombed a school full of girls we are not good people 165 girls murdered
Why don't you look it up and see why that happened instead of posting that continually.
Yes, because there is always a good reason why schools full of school children need to be obliterated.
@6:59...Reports from Amnesty International and other observers have highlighted that the school was located adjacent to an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) compound.
Accountability and Criticism: Critics argue that Iranian authorities failed to adequately protect civilians by not relocating schools, clinics, and residential areas away from, or failing to move children out of, potential military targets that were known to be at risk of being hit.
We were hitting the IRGC compound not kids in a school. Iran continues to use civilians as shields for propaganda.
Yes but you act like it's okay that Iran over the past 47 years has killed over 14,000 Americans is this acceptable they're hate for Americans and the United States of america? And their religion and their ideology is there Islam religion as Muslim people are full of vengeance and hate destruction and they'll kill anyone that doesn't agree with their ideology and radical Islam but this is okay right? You really need to get some help! You're letting your hate blind you don't let it cause cancer okay too?
