Iran has mocked the United States with a “Minesweeper” video showing a 3D map of the Strait of Hormuz, days after US forces completed clearing mines from international shipping routes. The Iranian embassy in Sierra Leone posted the 35-second animation with the message, “Habibi (Uncle Sam), come to Iran!” The taunt comes as fighting between the two countries intensifies. The US recently struck Iranian rocket launchers and military targets, while Iran retaliated with ballistic missiles against US targets in Jordan. Washington said the latest strikes targeted Iranian military capabilities, while Tehran claimed a wedding was hit. (PC: NDTV)
