华盛顿 — 在特朗普政府要求德黑兰保持霍尔木兹海峡商业自由流通的背景下，美国官员向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻透露，根据当前美国情报评估，这一关键航道内至少有十余枚水下水雷。
美国官员（他们已看过当前美国情报评估并以匿名方式向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻谈论敏感国家安全事务）表示，伊朗目前在海峡中部署的水雷是伊朗制造的Maham 3和Maham 7磁性水雷。
另一名美国官员称，水雷数量不足十枚。
周一上午，特朗普总统收回了对伊朗若继续封锁海峡将”摧毁”其发电厂的威胁。特朗普表示，他的中东特使史蒂夫·维特科夫和女婿贾里德·库什纳已与德黑兰展开谈判。
“如果谈判顺利，海峡很快就会恢复通航，”总统在谈到海峡和最新外交策略时说道。特朗普称，海峡的石油运输将由”我和最高领袖共同控制，无论最高领袖是谁”。
伊朗外交部否认举行了直接会谈。伊朗官方媒体指责特朗普企图争取时间。
根据连接爆炸物处置社区以共享信息并提高全球对未爆弹药及相关危险认识的”未爆弹药集体意识”网站介绍，Maham 3是一种系留海军水雷，使用磁声传感器在无物理接触情况下探测附近船只。它能在约10英尺范围内锁定目标，通过分析运动轨迹确定最佳引爆时机。电子定时器控制水雷激活时间，其1个磁传感器和2个被动声传感器可通过编码输入进行配置，操作灵活简便。
伊朗制造的Maham 7于2015年在武器展上首次公开亮相，被称为”粘性水雷”，是一种更隐蔽的海军武器。这种紧凑型高爆炸力水雷设计用于沿海底部署，依靠声传感器和三轴磁传感器组合探测附近船只。其预定目标包括中型船舶、登陆艇和小型潜艇。
该水雷部署灵活，可从水面舰艇释放，也可由飞机和直升机投下，甚至可投放到较浅水域。Maham 7的外形设计可散射入射声纳波，使扫雷系统难以探测，从而在目标进入射程前保持隐蔽状态，据”未爆弹药集体意识”网站介绍。
周一，美国中央司令部拒绝就此事置评。
白宫发言人安娜·凯利表示：”国防部已摧毁超过40艘布雷船，阻止伊朗试图扰乱能源自由流通。多亏特朗普总统，世界上许多国家已同意参与这一行动。”
上周，参谋长联席会议主席丹·凯恩将军告诉记者，美国中央司令部作为对伊朗开展军事行动的主要单位，正继续打击并摧毁水雷存储设施和海军弹药库。
“我们将继续搜寻并摧毁海上资产，包括120多艘船只和44艘布雷船，压力将持续存在，”凯恩说道。
凯恩还强调美军正针对伊朗设有水雷存储和部署设施的哈尔克岛进行打击。美国中央司令部指挥官布拉德·库珀海军上将已在该地区监督了90多次精确打击。
本月早些时候，哥伦比亚广播公司新闻曾报道伊朗正准备在霍尔木兹海峡部署海军水雷，以进一步扰乱关键航运通道。
美国官员向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻透露，伊朗正使用每艘可携带2至3枚水雷的小型船只在海峡布雷。尽管伊朗海军水雷库存的官方数据未公开，但多年来估计数量在2000至6000枚之间，主要由伊朗、中国或俄罗斯生产——甚至包括前苏联遗留的水雷。美国国防情报局2019年的报告称，伊朗拥有超过5000枚海军水雷，可通过”配备布雷设备的高速小船迅速部署”。
哥伦比亚广播公司新闻报道后，特朗普在Truth Social平台发文称：”如果伊朗在霍尔木兹海峡布设任何水雷，（目前）我们尚无其已布放的报告，我们要求立即将其清除！”
同日，美国中央司令部发布了对霍尔木兹海峡附近16艘布雷船实施空袭的解密视频。
包括美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）和路透社在内的其他新闻媒体本月早些时候也报道了伊朗布雷的消息。
与此同时，美以领导的对伊战争已进入第四周，其影响已蔓延至国内外。
战争始于2月28日，此前全球约20%的石油供应通过霍尔木兹海峡。自战争爆发以来，美国国内汽油价格稳步上涨，平均每加仑上涨约1美元，据GasBuddy.com数据显示。
哥伦比亚广播公司新闻最近的民调显示，大多数美国人对持续的对伊战争持负面看法。43%的受访者认为对伊冲突”进展非常好至相当好”，57%认为”进展非常差至相当差”。总体而言，62%的受访者不赞成特朗普处理伊朗战争的方式，38%表示赞成。
周一，股市大幅反弹，扭转了特朗普声称与德黑兰进行富有成效的和平谈判后推迟对伊海峡最后通牒期限前的早期悲观情绪。道琼斯工业平均指数攀升逾1000点，上涨2.4%至46,654点。大盘同步上涨：标准普尔500指数上涨2.1%，以科技股为主的纳斯达克综合指数上涨2.4%。

Amid Iran talks, Strait of Hormuz dotted with about a dozen Iranian mines, U.S. officials say
March 23, 2026 / 2:57 PM EDT / CBS News
Washington — Amid Trump administration demands for Tehran to keep the free flow of commerce in the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. officials have told CBS News that there are at least a dozen underwater mines through the vital passageway, according to current American intelligence assessments.
U.S. officials, who have seen current American intelligence assessments and spoke to CBS News under condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive national security matters, said the mines currently employed by Iran in the strait are the Iranian-manufactured Maham 3 and Maham 7 Limpet Mine.
Another U.S. official said the count was less than a dozen.
On Monday morning, President Trump backed off his threat to “obliterate” power plants if Iran continued to block the strait. Mr. Trump said his Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner had engaged in negotiations with Tehran.
“That’ll be open very soon, if this works,” the president said of the strait and the latest ploy for diplomacy. Mr. Trump said the flow of oil in the strait would be jointly controlled by “me and the Ayatollah, whoever the Ayatollah is.”
Iran’s foreign ministry denied that direct talks had taken place. Iranian state media accused Mr. Trump of wanting to buy time.
The Maham 3 is a moored naval mine that uses magnetic and acoustic sensors to detect nearby vessels without physical contact. It can engage targets within about 10 feet, analyzing movement to determine the most effective moment to activate. An electronic timer controls when the mine is active, while its one magnetic and two passive acoustic sensors can be configured through coded inputs, allowing for flexible and simplified operation, according to the Collective Awareness to Unexploded Ordnance website, a platform that connects the explosive ordnance disposal community to share information and improve global awareness of unexploded ordnance and related hazards.
First shown publicly at an arms exhibition in 2015, the Iranian-made Maham 7, known as a “sticking mine” is a more elusive naval weapon. The device, a compact high-explosive limpet mine designed to rest along the seabed, relies on a combination of acoustic and three-axis magnetic sensors to detect nearby vessels. Its intended targets included medium-sized ships, landing craft and smaller submarines.
Flexible in deployment, it can be released from surface vessels or dropped by aircraft and helicopters, even into relatively shallow waters. The shape of the Maham 7 was engineered to scatter incoming sonar waves that complicates detection by minesweeping systems, allowing it to remain concealed until a target passes within range, according to the Collective Awareness to Unexploded Ordnance website.
Contacted by CBS News on Monday, U.S. Central Command declined to comment.
White House spokesperson Anna Kelly said: “The Department of War has destroyed over 40 minelaying vessels to stop Iran from attempting to disrupt the free flow of energy. And thanks to President Trump, many countries around the world have agreed to help in this effort.”
Last week, Gen. Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters that U.S. Central Command, the primary unit conducting American military operations against Iran, is continuing to target and destroy mine storage facilities and naval ammunition depots.
“We continue to hunt and kill afloat assets, including more than 120 vessels and 44 mine layers, and the pressure will continue,” said Caine.
Caine also underscored the U.S. military’s targeting of Kharg Island where Iran has mine storage and deployment facilities. Adm. Brad Cooper, the commander of U.S. Central Command has overseen more than 90 precision strikes in that region.
Earlier this month, CBS News reported that Iran was preparing to deploy naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz in an effort to further disrupt key shipping lanes.
American officials told CBS News that Iran was using smaller crafts that can carry two to three mines each to lay them into the strait. While an official account of Iran’s naval mine stock is not publicly available, estimates over the years have ranged from roughly 2,000 to 6,000 naval mines largely produced by Iran, China or Russia—even mines dating back to the former Soviet Union. A 2019 report from the Defense Intelligence Agency said Iran had a naval mine stockpile of more than 5,000 that could be rapidly deployed by way of “high-speed small boats equipped as minelayers.”
Following the report from CBS News, Mr. Trump posted on Truth Social: “If Iran has put out any mines in the Hormuz Strait, and we have no reports of them doing so, we want them removed, IMMEDIATELY!”
That same day, U.S. Central Command released declassified footage of airstrikes on 16 minelayers near the Strait of Hormuz.
Other news outlets, including CNN and Reuters reported earlier this month that Iran had laid mines.
Meanwhile, the residual impacts of the U.S.-Israel led war with Iran has been felt abroad and in the United States as the war enters its fourth week.
About 20% of global oil supply flowed through the strait prior to the war’s start on February 28. Domestic gas prices have steadily risen since, up an average of roughly a dollar a gallon, according to GasBuddy.com.
A recent CBS News poll shows the majority of Americans feel negatively about the ongoing war with Iran. While 43% said the conflict with Iran was going “very to somewhat well,” 57% reported that it was “very to somewhat badly.” Overall, 62% disapprove of Mr. Trump’s handling of the Iran war and 38% saying they approve.
Stocks rallied sharply on Monday, reversing early pessimism after Mr. Trump said he would delay his ultimatum deadline for Iran over the strait given his claim of productive peace talks with Tehran. The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed more than 1,000 points, rising 2.4% to 46,654. The broader market followed suit: the S&P 500 gained 2.1 percent, while the Nasdaq Composite, heavily weighted toward technology companies, advanced 2.4%.
