On the 18th, the Wall Street Journal reported that U.S. President Donald Trump supported Israel's attack on a crucial gas field in Iran but opposed any additional bombing of Iranian energy facilities. The report cited U.S. officials indicating that Trump was aware of Israel's planned attack on the South Pars gas field and supported the action as a message to Iran regarding possible blockades in the Strait of Hormuz. However, Trump believes that the message has been adequately conveyed to Iran, leading him to oppose further military actions against Iranian energy infrastructure. Despite Trump's current stance, U.S. officials noted that if Iran takes certain actions in the Strait of Hormuz, Trump might reconsider and evaluate military strikes on Iranian energy facilities. This comes in light of Israel's unprecedented airstrike on Iran's energy production infrastructure, targeting facilities near the South Pars gas field, a significant site for the global gas supply chain as it provides about 70% of Iran’s domestic natural gas. Concerns have increased over potential disruptions to global gas supplies as a result of this attack. In a strong response, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian warned that the attack could create uncontrollable consequences globally and that such actions would not bring any benefit to enemies. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) threatened retaliation against energy facilities in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar within hours of the attack, indicating a heightened tension in the region and the potential for further military confrontations following this incident. The geopolitical implications of this situation are significant, as it could impact energy markets and international relations in the region.
