Iran Denies Kharg Island Was 'Blown to Smithereens' Amid Ongoing Conflict
The National Iranian Oil Company's CEO has contradicted US President Donald Trump's claim that Kharg Island was 'blown to smithereens' by American and Israeli forces.
The strategic facility has been bombed several times, but oil production continues uninterrupted according to the CEO, who called Trump's comments 'laughable'.
The official said contractors are actively rebuilding damaged infrastructure, with some projects 20-30% complete. Restoration work remains ongoing across the facility.
