On Sunday, US President Donald Trump heightened tensions with Iran, indicating that major strikes on the country’s infrastructure could occur on Tuesday (April 7).
In a post shared on Truth Social, Trump stated, “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the F**in’ Strait, you crazy b*st*rds, or you’ll be living in Hell — JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.”*
These comments hint at a potential escalation aimed at critical assets like power plants and bridges, as tensions simmer over the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil passage.
Trump’s warning follows the expiration of a temporary pause in planned strikes, making Tuesday a key moment in the ongoing conflict.
