U.S. airstrikes targeted military sites on Kharg Island—Iran's vital oil export terminal handling nearly 90% of crude shipments—destroying air defenses, radar, and other assets without disrupting operations, as Iranian state media footage confirms full armed forces control and uninterrupted exports. President Trump has intensified threats of further devastation to oil infrastructure or a ground troop seizure to pressure Tehran amid escalating U.S.-Israel-Iran hostilities, including Iran's recent retaliatory strike wounding over a dozen U.S. personnel and damaging aircraft. Tehran has reinforced the island with traps, personnel, and defenses. Traders monitor potential U.S. amphibious assault logistics, diplomatic talks progress, and Strait of Hormuz risks as key catalysts ahead of market deadlines.

“No longer under the control of Iran” means that Iran no longer exercises primary governmental or military control over Kharg Island, and another state, occupying force, or internationally backed authority has established control over the island.
Temporary raids, isolated landings, special operations, bombardment, sabotage, naval presence offshore, or temporary disruption of Iranian activity will not qualify on their own.
An announcement, threat, or claim that Iran has lost control will not qualify without actual control being established.
If control changes pursuant to a negotiated settlement, ceasefire term, surrender, or transfer agreement, this will qualify only once actual control has been established on the island.
If control over Kharg Island is contested, unclear, disputed, or not sufficiently established by the resolution date, this will not qualify, and the market will resolve to “No”.
The primary resolution source will be official statements from the relevant governments and militaries, along with a consensus of credible reporting.
