United States President Donald Trump said on Thursday that his country will take Iran's Kharg Island in "the not too distant future," along with other oil infrastructure sites.
"At some point in the not too distant future, we will be taking Kharg Island, and other oil infrastructure points, and assume total control of their Oil and Gas Markets, much like we have with Venezuela, which is working out brilliantly for both Venezuela and the United States of America," Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
The US president also warned that Washington will be striking Iran "VERY HARD TONIGHT." His remarks follow yesterday's attacks on the Middle Eastern country, which came as retaliation for Iran downing the US Apache helicopter and which led to Tehran launching its own attacks against the US bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan.
