Vice President JD Vance has confirmed US strikes on Iran’s Kharg Island, saying they did not target oil facilities and insisting that they do not represent a change in American strategy, Al Jazeera reports.
“We were going to strike some military targets on Kharg Island, and I believe we have done so,” Vance says.
“We’re not going to strike energy and infrastructure targets until the Iranians either make a proposal that we can get behind or don’t make a proposal,” he adds.
“I don’t think the news in Kharg Island … represents a change in strategy, or represents any change from the President of the United States.”
