Trump says Iran's Kharg Island bombed; US deploying up to 2,500 to Mideast

President Donald Trump said tonight the United States bombed “every military target” on Iran’s Kharg Island and threatened to attack the island’s oil infrastructure if Iran continues blocking ships from traversing the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, the Pentagon is deploying a Marine Expeditionary Unit to the Middle East, a rapid response unit typically comprised of around 2,500 Marines and sailors, three officials familiar with the matter told CNN. Kharg Island is a five-mile-stretch of land off the Iranian coast that had seemingly been left untouched during the first two weeks of the war with Iran. The critical island handles roughly 90% of the country’s crude exports. 0:00 Trump says U.S. forces destroyed military targets on Iran’s Kharg Island 2:17 Panel discusses Trump's threat to Kharg Island's oil infrastructure 4:06 Ret.
