Kharg Island and Larak Island are key Iranian islands considered potential military targets in a US conflict. Abu Musa and nearby islands are also mentioned as potential targets.
Occupying Kharg Island could significantly impact Iran's oil exports because it handles approximately 90% of the country's crude oil exports. The island's deep waters allow large tankers to dock.
Abu Musa Island is a sensitive military target because it controls ships leaving the Strait of Hormuz. It is also part of a territorial dispute.
