International Maritime Organization Secretary General Dominguez said in London on the 2nd that the organization is unable to confirm whether the mines in the waters of the Strait of Hormuz have been cleared, the safety of ship traffic is not guaranteed, and ships are still not recommended to sail in the strait. Recently, Iran has repeatedly claimed that a ship was struck by lightning because it sailed on an “unauthorized” route. The US Central Command, on the other hand, publicly denied the claims of being hit by a lightning and said it had cleared the mines in the international waterway in the Strait of Hormuz.
