🚀 Iran Warns of Naval Mines in Strait of Hormuz Amid Ongoing Conflict On April 9, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy issued a statement warning of potential anti-ship mines in the main traffic areas of the Strait of Hormuz due to recent conflicts. According to BlockBeats, vessels planning to navigate through the strait are advised to coordinate with the Revolutionary Guard Navy and follow an alternative route to avoid mines. The provided map indicates that the alternative route requires ships to enter and exit the Persian Gulf from the north and south sides of Larak Island in the northern part of the strait. On April 8, the Iranian Ports and Maritime Organization released a safety navigation map for the Strait of Hormuz, advising vessels to adhere to shipping safety principles to avoid mines. The organization stated that from February 28 to April 8, there have been ongoing conflicts in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, with potential anti-ship mines present in the main channel of the strait. #Iran#StraitOfHormuz#NavalMines#RevolutionaryGuard#PersianGulf#ShippingSafety#AntiShipMines#Conflict#MaritimeSafety
