Trump Threatens Iran with Rapid Destruction of 'All Bridges and Power Plants'

President Donald Trump has made a bold statement indicating that the United States has a detailed plan to swiftly destroy 'all bridges and power plants' in Iran, following an ultimatum regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial maritime route for oil transportation.

President of the United States Donald Trump has made a loud declaration, stating that the U.S. has a detailed plan for the rapid destruction of 'all bridges and power plants' in Iran. This threat was articulated in the context of an ultimatum that Trump issued to Tehran regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, an essential maritime route for oil transportation.

According to information reported by 'European Truth,' citing CNN, Trump emphasized that if his demands are not met, the U.S. is prepared to take actions that could lead to the complete destruction of Iran's infrastructure in just a few hours. 'I mean total destruction by 12 o'clock (midnight Eastern Time). And it will happen in four hours – if we want it to happen. We would not like to see that happen,' the president stated.

It is noteworthy that Trump has announced a new deadline for Iran to comply with his ultimatum, set for 8:00 PM Eastern Time, which corresponds to 3 AM Wednesday in Kyiv time. This ultimatum has become part of the escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran, which have been ongoing for several years.

Moreover, Trump did not limit himself to threats regarding the destruction of infrastructure. He also stated that Iran could face 'worse things' than the destruction of bridges and power plants. 'You can wipe out the whole country in one evening, and that evening could be tomorrow,' he added, underscoring the seriousness of his intentions.

These statements from Trump have sparked widespread resonance in the international community, as they threaten not only U.S.-Iran relations but also the stability of the entire Middle East region. Many analysts believe that such actions could lead to an escalation of conflict and new military actions.

Trump also noted that he is not concerned about the possibility that U.S. strikes on civilian infrastructure could be classified as war crimes. This statement has provoked outrage among human rights advocates and the international community, who are calling for adherence to international humanitarian law.

Thus, the situation surrounding Iran remains tense, and further actions by the U.S. could significantly impact the developments in the region. While Trump continues to threaten military actions, the world is watching closely to see how events will unfold in the coming days.
