A senior Iranian lawmaker has told Donald Trump that not a single American soldier would survive any attempt to seize Kharg Island, Iran's most vital oil terminal.
The warning came hours after the US president once again floated a takeover of the island, following a fresh exchange of strikes across the Gulf on 7 and 8 July that pushed the fragile ceasefire between Washington and Tehran to the brink of collapse. Trump declared the truce 'over' at the NATO summit in Ankara, even as he left the door open for talks.
