Tension between America and Iran has increased further. US President Donald Trump has said that the US Army has heavily bombed Iran’s Kharg Island. Iran has reacted strongly after America’s attack on military bases on Kharg Island. A spokesman for Iran’s Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters said that if Iran’s oil, economic or energy targets were attacked, Iran would respond immediately. The spokesperson said that in retaliation, such regional structures which are related to America will be targeted.
Threat to destroy structures linked to America
Iran’s military leadership has said that if the oil, economic or energy infrastructure inside its country is attacked, then those targets across the region which are related to American companies or which are working in collaboration with Washington will be targeted. A spokesman for the Khatam al-Anbia headquarters said that any attack on Iran’s oil, economic or energy infrastructure would be immediately followed by retaliatory attacks on similar infrastructure. This may also include the locations of companies in which the US has stakes or which are considered supporters of US regional operations.
Know why Kharg Island is important
The attack on Kharg Island has come at a time when the US Army has ordered to send 2500 soldiers and an amphibious assault ship to the Middle East. According to a recent report by JP Morgan, Kharg Island is very important for Iran’s economy. Experts say that if there is a direct attack here, a large part of Iran’s crude oil exports could stop immediately. In fact, about 90 percent of Iran’s oil is loaded in ships from this island and sent to other countries. In such a situation, if the energy bases of this island are targeted, then Iran’s huge income from oil can stop in one stroke.
Iran has already given warning
Experts say that if Iranian oil facilities on Kharg Island are targeted, it could have serious consequences. In response to this, major attacks may begin on energy related structures in the Strait of Hormuz or Gulf countries. Just a day earlier, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) had threatened that if there was even the slightest attack on its energy infrastructure, it could set oil and gas structures in the entire region on fire.
