War in Iran: US Attacks Key Oil Island

185

The US carries out attacks against Iran. The US military attacked the island Kharg. This island is very important for Iran. Iran stores almost all its oil there. Without this island, Iran can hardly sell oil. This hurts Iran's economy very much. Donald Trump says Iran is almost beaten. He is the President of the US. He wants Iran to give up soon. The attacks will last as long as needed.

The US also looks for Mojtaba Khamenei. He is the son of the top leader in Iran. The US offers much money for clues about him. This is called a bounty. It is about 5 million dollars. The US believes he helps in the fights. The situation in the Persian Gulf is very serious. Ships from India could travel safely through the sea.

Donald Trump has a hard choice. He wants to end the war fast. The soccer World Cup takes place in his country this summer. A long war could be bad for the sports event. Experts do not know how long the fight lasts. Iran still fights back against the attacks.
