US strikes military targets on Kharg Island

← Back to Dashboard
📅 13 March 2026 📍 Iran

The United States announced strikes on military targets on Kharg Island, Iran’s main oil-export hub. President Trump also threatened to target oil infrastructure if Iran continued blocking shipping. The distinction between military targets and energy-export infrastructure matters because the island supports a large share of Iranian oil exports and civilian livelihoods. This record follows the US announcement and does not treat its description of targets as independent verification.
