The ministry also urged Iranian authorities to disclose the locations of naval mines and cooperate in their removal to safeguard maritime routes and ensure the safe passage of vessels through the strategically vital waterway.
Earlier today, US Central Command (CENTCOM), American forces intercepted six of the missiles, while the seventh failed to reach its intended target.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), in turn, accused US drones of striking telecommunications towers on Qeshm Island and in Sirik, after which Iranian forces launched ballistic missiles at Kuwait's Ali Al Salem Air Base and facilities linked to the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain.
