US-Iran war has taken a dramatic turn after U.S. strikes targeted military facilities on Kharg Island, the strategic hub that handles the majority of Iran’s crude oil exports. Kharg Island sits in the Persian Gulf and serves as the primary export terminal for roughly 85–90% of Iran’s oil shipments, making it one of the most important energy nodes in the global oil supply chain. US President Donald Trump says U.S. forces “obliterated” military targets on the island while warning that Iran’s oil infrastructure could become the next target if tensions escalate.
