Explosions have been reported on Iran’s Kharg Island, from which almost all the country’s oil is exported, according to the semi-official Iranian news agency Mehr.
Mehr reported “several explosions” but provided no further details.
US President Donald Trump has on several occasions threatened to bomb the island or to seize it.
On March 30, Trump said in a social media post that the US could destroy “Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island.” (CNN)
