"If Iran doesn't FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST."
"Following Trump's threat, the Iranian army said it would target all energy infrastructure belonging to the US in the region if Iran's fuel and energy infrastructure were attacked."
"Shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, where a fifth of the world's oil and gas passes through during peacetime, has virtually ground to a halt since the early days of the war."
"Iran has said the Strait of Hormuz is open to all except the US and its allies, with Minister of Foreign Affairs Abbas Araghchi saying last week that he had been approached by a number of countries seeking safe passage for their vessels."
Trump threatened to attack Iran's power plants if the Strait of Hormuz is not fully opened within 48 hours. Iran responded by stating it would target US energy infrastructure in the region if attacked. The situation escalates as shipping traffic through the Strait has nearly halted, impacting global oil prices. Trump indicated a potential winding down of military efforts in the Middle East, while Iran maintains the Strait is open to all except the US and its allies, seeking safe passage for other nations' vessels.
