- The US Navy is offering new evidence about Iran's involvement in the attacks on the oil tankers and the weapons used
The US Navy said that the mines used in the attack on the two carriers in the Gulf of Oman carry a "blatant similarity" with Iranian mines, revealing fragments of a sticky mine and a magnet removed from one of them.
She explained in an interview with journalists that the sticky mine used in the attack can be distinguished, and also bears a striking resemblance to Iranian mines already made public in Iranian military displays.
The assessment confirmed that the attack on the Japanese tanker Kokuka Korigos, and the damage it caused, was the result of naval mines laid on the outer shell of the ship, not torpedoes.
She confirmed that the mine exploded on the water, and it does not appear that the intention was to sink the ship, pointing to another mine proved on the outside structure, and removed by the Iranian force was on a speedboat before the explosion.
