Hebrew daily 'Yedioth Ahronoth' – Ron Ben Yishai: Unlike the pattern of operations in past conflicts with ‘Israel,’ where Iranian attacks were limited to land targets, Tehran is threatening this time—and appears to be making preparations—to wage a naval war. Among its objectives: closing the Strait of Hormuz using naval mines, swarms of small fast warships, attack drones, and coastal missiles. If such a blockade succeeds, it would cripple a large portion of oil and gas supplies heading from the Middle East to Asia and Europe, and would cause severe damage even to countries that do not take part in a US attack.
