Project Freedom is a US Central Command-led initiative launched to assist commercial mariners stranded by Iranian sea mines in the Strait of Hormuz. The project provides a range of assistance including intelligence on mine locations, defensive capabilities, drones, imagery, and coordination to ensure safe navigation through the mined waterway. The US has deployed two destroyers as part of this defensive and humanitarian mission, which is intended to be a long-term framework to maintain maritime freedom and safety in the region.
