Iran has been preparing for months against a possible US amphibious assault on Kharg Island.

Oxu.Az reports that CNN has aired this information, citing sources.

According to the report, Tehran has mined coastal areas and deployed additional air defense systems and missile complexes on the island.

It is stated that along the shoreline - where the likelihood of a US troop landing is highest - Iranian forces have planted anti-personnel and anti-tank mines, as well as prepared other defensive barriers and traps.

Recall that earlier, US President Donald Trump declared Washington's intention to seize Kharg Island and its oil infrastructure.
