On March 14, 2026, the US launched a strike on Kharg Island, targeting military sites that are integral to Iran's oil export network. This action raises concerns regarding the operational capacity of Iran's oil infrastructure.
Kharg Island serves as a critical hub for oil exports, and the destruction of military sites may disrupt not only military operations but also the logistical frameworks supporting oil shipments.
