The United States forces executed a large-scale precision strike on Iran’s Kharg Island, its biggest oil export hub, on Friday night, the US Central Command said on Saturday.
Much of the oil shipped from Iran via Kharg goes to China, the top global crude importer, which has been taking measures including banning refined fuel exports to preserve supplies amid disruption in the Middle East.
“U.S. forces successfully struck more than 90 Iranian military targets on Kharg Island, while preserving the oil infrastructure,” US Central Command (CENTCOM), which is responsible for American forces in the Middle East, said in a post on X.
