US Weighs Seizure of Kharg Island Amid Hormuz Crisis
The United States is reportedly considering the seizure of Kharg Island, Iran's primary oil export terminal, as the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz enters its seventh month. The IRGC continues to assert control over the waterway, demanding an end to U.S. military presence and sanctions. The potential for direct military confrontation remains high as both sides maintain significant naval assets in the region and diplomatic efforts remain stalled.
