U.S. President Donald Trump has resumed his harsh rhetoric toward Iran, warning of strong military measures if an agreement to end the conflict is not reached.
In a response published on the Truth Social platform, Trump directly threatened that the U.S. could "take down Iran's power plants and bridges" if Tehran continues with its current stance.
The statement comes after an escalation of the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, where Iranian authorities took actions that led to the temporary blockade of maritime passage, including attacks on several ships.
In his post, Trump emphasizes that the United States "loses nothing" from such a situation, while according to him, Iran is facing significant financial losses, amounting to millions of dollars. A few days earlier, the American president had declared that Iran had committed to no longer blocking this strategic route, one of the most important for global oil transportation. However, recent developments appear to have called this claim into question.
Tensions between the two countries remain high, while the international community is closely monitoring the situation in the region with concern, due to its direct impact on global security and energy markets.
