nbcnews.comPresident Trump stated on June 11 that the United States will strike Iran again that night and will seize Kharg Island and other oil facilities in the near future. He wrote on Truth Social that Iran's Navy, Air Force, radar, anti-aircraft systems and most offensive capability are gone.
Island is an outcrop off Iran's coast that handles 90 percent of the country's oil exports. The seizure would occur at some point in the not too distant future.
