So, Krasnov Wants To Capture Kharg Island

Kharg Island and maybe several more small Islands in Hormuz.

I have one thing to say about this, Remember Snake Island? Russia captured Snake Island quite easily.

I have a question to ask, who controls Snake Island today? ans; Ukraine.

It is one thing to capture an island but another thing to hold it.

It's hundreds of miles north of the strait that the navy can't get through.

I'm completely mystified by this suggestion. Does the US have ships required to do a waterborne invasion already in place north of the strait?
