Saturday

Oil exports from Kharg Island were proceeding normally. No casualties. No disruption.

Trump bombed “Iran’s crown jewel.” Iran says nothing changed. Oil is still flowing. The Strait is still blocked. And Brent crude is now above $100 a barrel. US gas prices have climbed to an average of $3.68 a gallon — a 23% increase since Operation Epstein Fury began.

IMO, he likely wants a second chance to damage and actually demolish, destroy the oil production export hub.
