US intelligence has detected the presence of mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
Reports in the US media, citing unnamed senior US officials, stated that US intelligence has identified at least 12 underwater mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
The reports indicated that the mines placed in the strait by Iran are the Iranian-made Maham 3 and Maham 7 limpet mines.
The Maham 3 is known as a moored naval mine that detects nearby objects without requiring physical contact through magnetic and acoustic sensors.
The Maham 7, which was first introduced to the public at an arms fair in 2015, is also known as a "sticky mine" and is extremely difficult to detect.
The high-explosive mine, which is placed on the seabed, detects ships in its immediate vicinity using a combination of acoustic and three-axis magnetic sensors.
