The president of the United States announced that the United States Central Command carried out a major bombing raid on Kharg Island, one of Iran’s primary oil terminals. In a statement posted on Truth Social, he described the operation as one of the most powerful airstrikes in the region’s history.

According to the president, the strikes targeted military facilities on the island, which he referred to as Iran’s 'crown jewel.' He said all designated military targets were destroyed.

The oil infrastructure on Kharg Island, which serves as a critical export point for the majority of Iran’s oil shipments, was not targeted during the operation. The situation is ongoing and further details are expected.
