Scott Basset, the U.S. Treasury Secretary, shared old and new satellite images of the Kharg Island oil terminal on his X account, stating that unlike in the past, no oil tankers carrying crude oil are currently seen at this terminal.

On Thursday, October 21, he wrote: "Kharg Island is now nothing but a symbol of the only thing the Iranian regime can still produce: failure."

Basset added that the U.S. "economic expulsion" operations are cutting off the revenue streams of the Islamic Republic, limiting the financial resources used to support terrorism, supply equipment for the nuclear program, and fund the luxurious lives of senior IRGC officials.

These remarks follow statements made by the U.S. Treasury Secretary on Tuesday, who said that since August, no oil loading has been observed at the Kharg Island facilities, and Iran no longer has any oil shipments at sea.

Basset had previously announced that Iran did not load a single barrel of crude oil onto tankers in September; a fact confirmed by data from tanker tracking companies.
