US Strikes Intensify, Trump Eyes Kharg Island, Iran Oil Ban Begins

A sixth consecutive night of US airstrikes has intensified the Iran war as President Donald Trump signals he could seize Kharg Island, the strategic hub that handles around ninety per cent of Iran's oil exports. At the same time, new US sanctions have taken full effect, effectively ending the legal trade of Iranian crude through American-authorised channels and tightening economic pressure on Tehran.

In Episode 140 of Epic Fury: The US-Iran War Podcast, we break down the latest US military operations, the growing threat to the Strait of Hormuz, the significance of Kharg Island, renewed CENTCOM strikes, Iran's response, and why the battle over oil is becoming the defining front of this conflict.

We also examine:

  • Six straight nights of US strikes across Iran
  • Trump's latest comments on Kharg Island and Iran's energy infrastructure
  • The beginning of the new Iran oil sanctions regime
  • CENTCOM's expanding blockade and operations in the Persian Gulf
  • The latest on Pickaxe Mountain and Iran's nuclear programme
  • Oil prices, global markets, and the impact on energy security
  • Political pressure in Washington and the future of the war
