Trump says US bombed Iranian island, warns against blocking oil route

President Donald Trump claimed the United States launched a bombing raid on Iran's Kharg Island. He said military targets on the island were "obliterated" but that oil infrastructure was spared for now.

Trump warned Iran against attempting to block the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping lane for global oil supplies. He suggested that if such a blockade occurred, the US could target Iran's oil export capabilities.
