Iran reportedly preparing to mine Strait of Hormuz, a move that would spike global oil prices and give a significant boost to the Russian economy and its war machine in Ukraine.

Reuters reported Iran loaded #naval #mines onto vessels in #PersianGulf last month, citing 2 US officials, who said the preparations had been detected after #Israel launched its “preemptive” attack against Iran on June 13.
