U.S. considers seizing Iran’s Kharg Island to cut oil revenue and weaken regime, pending drone threat neutralization.
The U.S. is reportedly considering a military operation to seize Kharg Island, Iran’s primary oil export hub, to disrupt its revenue and weaken the regime, according to White House adviser Jarrod Agen.
The island handles up to 90% of Iran’s oil exports and is vital to the Revolutionary Guard’s funding.
While no official confirmation exists, officials suggest the move could enable a nonviolent transition by removing Iran’s energy leverage, with plans delayed until threats from Iranian drones and missiles are neutralized.
The proposal aligns with broader strategic efforts, including increased oil access from Venezuela after the capture of President Nicolás Maduro.
EE.UU. considera apoderarse de la isla iraní de Kharg para reducir los ingresos petroleros y debilitar el régimen, a la espera de la neutralización de la amenaza de los drones.
