Tehran: The conflict between the United States and Iran shows no signs of subsiding. Amid this ongoing tension, Kharg Island has emerged as a focal point of attention. Considered the backbone of Iran’s economy, the island has even been described by Trump as the country’s “crown jewel.” In recent days, Trump claimed that U.S. strikes had destroyed military installations located there, and he has now issued another strong warning regarding the island. He stated that the U.S. military could target the oil pipelines present on Kharg Island. If such action is taken, it would deal a significant blow to Iran.
