The US has bombed Kharg Island, but Iran has ensured that it has not damaged its oil infrastructure
Tehran has continued its attacks on US bases in the Persian Gulf countries and has also attacked Israel.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday that the U.S. Army has carried out a bombing of the strategic Iranian island of Kharg, but has not attacked its oil infrastructure "out of dignity."
"Very recently, under my command, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) has carried out one of the toughest bombings in the history of the Middle East and has completely destroyed all military targets of the Iranian jewel, Kharg Island," he announced at the Truth Social, before adding that "with dignity, he has decided not to destroythe island's oil infrastructure. " du.
However, the President of the United States has said that he will reconsider possible attacks on the oil industry if the situation in the Strait of Hormuz continues.
Iran, for its part, has responded that the attacks failed to achieve its goal, and a spokesman for Khatam al-Anbiya's Central Headquarters (KCHG) has indicated that Iran will attack any US-involved oil infrastructure.
"We will immediately destroy all the oil, economic and energy infrastructure of the oil companies in the region that have US shares or cooperate with the US and turn it into ashes," he said.
Official Iranian sources have reported that the attack on Kharg Island has not destroyed any oil infrastructure, despite about 15 explosions.
Likewise, authorities in the Persian country have indicated that within an hour of the US bombing, the island's defense systems were in operation, contrary to what Trump had said.
Kharg Island, about 24 square kilometres south of the Iranian coast in the Persian Gulf, is one of the key strategic points for the oil trade in the Islamic Republic, from which the export of 90% of Iranian crude oil starts.
