U.S. Forces Strike Over 50 Military Targets on Kharg Island
U.S. Central Command conducted more than 50 precision strikes against military infrastructure on Iran’s Kharg Island early on April 7, 2026. According to U.S. officials, the operation targeted missile sites and security apparatus facilities but deliberately avoided energy infrastructure to prevent a global oil price shock. The strikes were part of Operation Epic Fury and served as a final military pressure tactic before the ceasefire negotiations culminated in a two-week truce late that evening.
