Washington (Monitoring Desk) According to the U.S. Department of Defense (Pentagon), it may take approximately six months to clear naval mines from the Strait of Hormuz.
International media reports say Pentagon officials briefed lawmakers in a closed-door meeting on the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, where detailed explanations regarding war costs, strategy, and objectives were not provided.
After the session, members reportedly said they were left with more questions than answers, while no clear position was presented on several sensitive military matters.
The report also noted that the briefing referenced a past incident in which dozens of people were killed during an attack on an educational institution, but no detailed clarification was provided in this regard either.
It is worth noting that the Strait of Hormuz is a highly important maritime route for global trade, and any tension in the area can directly impact the global economy and energy supply chains.
