Reference News Network, March 14 report: According to a report by AFP on March 14, citing Iranian media, the attack by the United States on the Khark Island oil export hub did not damage the oil infrastructure.
The Fars News Agency cited sources on the island as saying that the oil facilities were not damaged. Previously, US President Trump said that the US attack only destroyed military targets on the island.
Trump had previously warned on social media that if Tehran continued to block the strategically important Hormuz Strait, the US would target the oil infrastructure on Khark Island.
In response, Iran threatened to attack oil infrastructure related to the United States.
According to Fars News Agency, the US action "attempted to destroy military defense facilities."
Khark Island is located in the northeastern part of the Persian Gulf, about 30 kilometers from the Iranian mainland, and is responsible for handling 90% of Iran's oil exports. (Translated by Hu Guanghe)
