President Trump on Tuesday sat for an interview with Fox News, where he suggested that a ground invasion may be imminent in Iran and that the US may take over Iran’s critical oil export hub of Kharg Island. 

The President declined to say whether he would rule out a ground campaign, suggesting it might be necessary if he “thought it was appropriate.”

“Sometimes you need a ground campaign, but we have other people that will do the ground campaign for us,” Trump added.

Trump also said the ongoing air campaign against Iran, which resumed last week, will “continue until I say it’s enough.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, US forces carried out attacks on Iran for approximately seven hours last night, hitting “dozens of military targets near the Strait of Hormuz and Iranian coastal areas,” US Central Command said, releasing video of strikes.

This comes after a five-hour-long mission on Monday, where US forces hit targets across Iran, including Bushehr, Chah Bahar, Jask, Konarak, Abu Musa, and Bandar Abbas.

It seems that the US is working to degrade Iran’s drone and missile capabilities in and around the Strait of Hormuz in preparation for an invasion of Kharg Island in the Northern Persian Gulf.

“If we degrade them far enough and deep enough back, I would do that,” Trump told Fox News with regard to an invasion of Kharg Island.

“We already hit Kharg Island, as you know, twice, even three times. I said, hit everything but the oil. Just leave that little area from 25 yards out. Leave that little area. Don’t touch the oil, because I don’t want that in terms of the world economy,” Trump said.

“You know, it’s a chunk of the world economy, so we haven’t hit that. At some point, we could, but I think it’s unlikely.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump also threatened during the interview to begin hitting Iran’s energy, oil, and transportation infrastructure next week.

“I’ll save the energy targets for last, but ultimately we’ll hit energy targets,” Trump said after confirming that daily strikes against Iran will continue.

“We’re going to knock out all their power plants, we’re going to knock out all their bridges unless they get to the table and negotiate,” he added.
