Trump promises to strike Iran’s infrastructure on Tuesday if Strait of Hormuz isn’t reopened
Trump warns Iran’s civilian infrastructure could be hit if the strait stays shut, as mediators seek talks and regional fuel prices climb.
- On Easter Sunday, President Donald Trump threatened to bomb Iran's power plants and bridges starting Tuesday if Tehran does not reopen the Strait of Hormuz, posting on Truth Social that "Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day."
- This ultimatum follows a Friday F-15E Strike Eagle crash near Iranian territory, which prompted a U.S. search-and-rescue operation; Iran promised a reward for anyone who turned in an "enemy pilot."
- Iran's joint military command warned Saturday that "the doors of hell will be opened" if its infrastructure is attacked, while Tehran alleged four American aircraft were destroyed during the rescue operation.
- Retaliatory drone attacks have already struck oil and petrochemical facilities in Bahrain, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates, as mediators from Pakistan, Turkey, and Egypt work toward a ceasefire with little progress.
- With the 48-hour deadline approaching, the conflict has killed more than 1,900 people in Iran since February 28, and disruptions in the Persian Gulf threaten global energy supplies to Europe and Asia.
