Iran said the US used “ports, docks and hideouts” in the UAE to launch strikes on Kharg Island, home to the main terminal handling Iran’s oil exports. Debris from an intercepted Iranian drone hit an oil facility, sparking a fire at a third port mentioned in the warning, in Fujairah. Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency said the Kharg Island strikes caused no damage to oil infrastructure. On Saturday, Iran’s joint military command reiterated its threat to attack US-linked “oil, economic and energy infrastructures” in the region if the Islamic Republic’s oil infrastructure is hit. Israel’s military said it had not targeted the area and the US military declined to comment.
