President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Iran, threatening to order direct attacks on Iranian bridges and power plants as well as to rain hell on Tehran if the country fails to meet his specified deadline. The ultimatum demands that Iran reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz by 8 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Tuesday, which corresponds to 0000 Greenwich Mean Time on Wednesday.

This strong statement reflects growing tensions in the region and underscores the United States determination to ensure the free flow of global oil supplies through the critical waterway. Trump emphasized that any non-compliance would trigger severe military consequences aimed at key Iranian infrastructure.

The development comes amid heightened concerns over maritime security and international trade routes, as closure of the strait could disrupt energy markets worldwide and escalate conflicts in the Middle East.
