U.S. Strikes More Than 90 Iranian Military Targets On Kharg Island, CENTCOM Says

March 14 (Reuters) – U.S. forces conducted a large-scale precision strike on Iran’s Kharg Island on Friday night, U.S. Central Command said on Saturday.

“U.S. forces successfully struck more than 90 Iranian military targets on Kharg Island while protecting oil infrastructure,” CENTCOM said.

The attack destroyed offshore mine storage facilities, missile storage bunkers and many other military facilities, the US military said in a post on X.

President Donald Trump was threatenedTehran will hit Iran’s oil infrastructure in the center of Kharg Island on Friday unless it stops attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
