Iran’s First Vice President Warns Trump Over Military Threats to Kharg Island.

Iran’s First Vice President has issued a strong warning to former U.S. President Donald Trump amid escalating tensions, saying that while Trump may decide to send American troops to Kharg Island, he will not control their return.

Speaking during a briefing in Tehran on Monday, the Iranian Vice President cautioned against any potential military aggression, stating that any attack on Iranian territory would be met with a forceful response.

He emphasized that Kharg Island, a vital oil export hub located in the Persian Gulf, remains a symbol of Iran’s economic and strategic strength, and any attempt to threaten it would have “serious consequences.”

The remarks follow days of heightened rhetoric between Washington and Tehran over oil exports and regional security.

U.S. commentators have viewed the statement as a direct message aimed at deterring possible American military maneuvers in the Gulf.
