Trump threatens to shoot Iranian boats laying mines in Strait of Hormuz
President Donald Trump ordered the United States Navy to fire on any Iranian boats that are placing mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
“I have ordered the United States Navy to shoot and kill any boat, small boats though they may be (Their naval ships are ALL, 159 of them, at the bottom of the sea!), that is putting mines in the waters of the Strait of Hormuz. There is to be no hesitation,” Trump wrote in a post on social media.
At the same time, Trump said that the United States has been working to clear mines from the strait. #iran #middleeast #trump #straitofhormuz #navy
