A major target. I'm Paul Stevens, FOX News. President Trump saying the US Forces have destroyed military targets on Iran's Kharg island that is a key hub for the country's oil exports. The president saying the strikes obliterated military sites, but he left the island's oil facilities intact for now. The president warning they could be targeted if Iran continues to interfere with shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Meantime, 2,500 more US Marines are being sent to the area. The Pentagon is examining a tragic refueling accident in Iraq that killed six U.S. service members this week. Fox's Steve Harrigan is on the border between Iran and Armenia.
