The media writes about the passage of US Navy ships.
US President Donald Trump said that the United States is beginning the process of demining the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, it became known that US Navy ships have passed through the strait.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to Trump's post to the social network Truth Social and the publication Axios.
In his post, Trump wrote that "the fake media has completely lost credibility" because, due to "Trump hate syndrome," they like to say that Iran is "winning."
The US leader himself points out that this is not true, and that in fact Iran is losing and "losing very big."
"Their navy has been destroyed, their air force has been destroyed, their anti-aircraft artillery is non-existent, their radars don't work, their missile and drone factories are virtually destroyed along with the missiles and drones themselves, and most importantly, their longtime 'leaders' are no longer with us, thank Allah!", Trump wrote.
He said the only thing Iran has left is the threat that a ship could "get caught" in one of the sea mines in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump then added that all of Tehran's 28 minesweepers are already at the bottom of the sea, and also announced the clearing of the strait.
"We are now beginning the process of clearing the Strait of Hormuz as a service to countries around the world, including China, Japan, South Korea, France, Germany and many others. Incredibly, they do not have the courage or the will to do this work on their own. However, very interestingly, empty oil tankers from many countries are heading to the US to load up with oil," the president said.
In the meantime, Axios journalist Barak Ravid writes that according to his source, several US Navy ships crossed the Strait of Hormuz today.
- The move was not coordinated with Iran. This is the first time US warships have crossed the Strait of Hormuz since the start of the war," he added.
It is not clear which ships entered. As is known, twenty-four hours earlier, Trump said that in 24 hours will be assessed negotiations with Iran. At the same time, he added that the US was also preparing for a negative scenario and its ships were receiving new weapons in case diplomacy failed.
