United States President Donald Trump said American forces carried out one of the most powerful bombing raids in the region, striking military facilities on Kharg Island, a key hub in Iran’s oil network. He stated that all intended military targets were completely destroyed, while oil infrastructure was intentionally left untouched.

Washington also warned that any attempt to disrupt shipping through the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz would lead to direct strikes on Iran’s oil facilities. The latest military action signals a sharp escalation in tensions involving the United States, Israel, and Iran, raising concerns about broader regional instability and energy security.
