Iranian media say oil infrastructure on Kharg Island remained intact following reported US strikes, pushing back against fears that a key energy hub might have been hit.

On Saturday, the Iranian news agency Fars reported, citing sources on the ground, that oil facilities on the island had not been damaged. The report came hours after remarks by Donald Trump indicating that US bombardment on the island had targeted military sites.

According to the account carried by Fars, the strikes did not affect the island’s oil installations. The agency said sources present at the location confirmed that no damage had been recorded to energy infrastructure.

Kharg Island plays a central role in Iran’s oil sector and is widely regarded as a crucial hub for the country’s petroleum activity. Any disruption there would normally draw close attention from energy markets and governments watching developments in the region.

The statement from Iranian media followed comments by Trump earlier in which he said US forces had struck military targets on the island. In his remarks, he framed the action as directed at those objectives rather than civilian or energy facilities.

At the same time, Trump had issued a warning in a social media post suggesting that oil infrastructure on the island could become a target if Tehran continued blocking the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic maritime route. The strait is considered one of the world’s most sensitive shipping corridors for oil transport.

Iranian reports, however, insisted that the island’s oil facilities were unaffected by the strikes described by the US president. No further details were provided in the dispatch about the scope of the bombardment or the locations of the military targets Trump referred to.

For now, the only confirmed public accounts remain those two statements: Washington describing military strikes on the island, and Iranian media saying the country’s oil infrastructure there has not been damaged.

With Kharg Island’s role in Iran’s oil network drawing attention whenever tensions rise, the immediate claim from Iranian sources that facilities are intact may carry weight in the near term as officials and observers watch for further developments.

There was no additional confirmation in the information released Saturday beyond the statements already made, leaving the situation defined largely by those initial accounts.
