Amid the escalating US-Iran conflict, Kharg Island—Iran's vital oil export hub handling 90% of its crude shipments—remains fully under Iranian control as of early April 2026. US airstrikes on March 13 targeted military installations, which American officials claimed obliterated defenses while sparing infrastructure, but Iranian reports confirm no damage to oil facilities, with exports reportedly increasing. President Trump has threatened ground operations or blockades to compel reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, prompting Iran to reinforce the island with minefields, anti-aircraft missiles, and troop buildups. Diplomatic deadlines loom amid risks of broader escalation, including retaliatory strikes on US forces or Gulf allies, shaping trader assessments of seizure feasibility.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if Kharg Island is no longer under Iranian control by April 15, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
