Replying to message #78100

JD Vance, the Vice President of the United States, announced on Monday in a conversation with reporters that Donald Trump, by posting a message on the social media platform Truth Social about turning Kharg Island, Iran's energy hub, into "a pile of ashes," was sending a message to Iran.

In response to a question about Trump's post, he said: "The President likes to sometimes change his approach on social media. He would be the first to say that he doesn't issue announcements about military actions on social media, but I think he is sending a message to the Iranians."

Before the start of the war between the U.S. and Israel with Iran last March, Kharg was the loading and export point for about 90% of Iran's oil shipments, and an attack on this island could severely disrupt Iran's energy trade and put significant pressure on the country's economy.
