He emphasized: “If the United States decides to attack Khark Island and its oil facilities, we declare that all oil and gas installations of the country from whose territory the attack occurs will be destroyed. The armed forces will turn these facilities to ashes. We have shown that we keep our promises, and in this situation, we have no restrictions. No nation should allow itself to be used as a base for American aggression against Khark Island.”
The neighbors of Khark Island are Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. If the U.S. decides to land troops on the island, it is most likely to be done from one of these countries.
Earlier, Donald Trump stated that the U.S. could attack the export hub on Khark Island “within five minutes.” In a recent interview, he also claimed that the U.S. dealt a powerful blow to the Iranian island in the Persian Gulf. However, Iranian media reported that the oil infrastructure was not damaged and that the air defense systems on the island continue to function.
