Trump Gives Iran Deadline To Open Strait Of Hormuz
8 hours ago
The clock is ticking on a 48-hour ultimatum from Donald Trump demanding that Iran reopen the critical shipping route in the Strait of Hormuz.
The president warned that if the strait is not reopened, the United States could launch strikes on Iran’s power infrastructure.
Iran has responded with its own threats, saying it could escalate attacks across the region and even fully close the waterway if military action is taken.
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most vital energy corridors, with a significant portion of global oil supply passing through it daily—raising concerns about global markets and potential economic fallout.
The situation continues to escalate as the broader Middle East conflict enters its fourth week with no clear end in sight.
