Kharg Island, Iran's primary Persian Gulf oil terminal handling 90% of its crude exports, remains under full Tehran control despite a March 13 US airstrike destroying over 90 military sites while sparing energy infrastructure. Amid heightened US-Iran tensions over Strait of Hormuz disruptions, the Trump administration considers a ground seizure to pressure reopening shipping lanes, prompting Iranian reinforcements of traps, air defenses, and personnel on the island. Tehran released footage showing secure operations and rising oil loadings, underscoring resilience. Traders weigh military risks like drones and mines against potential escalation, with no confirmed troop deployments or diplomatic breakthroughs as of early April.
