Trump Issues 48-Hour Ultimatum to Iran Over Power Plants

On a Saturday night post on Truth Social, former U.S. President Donald Trump issued a stark warning to Iran, threatening to obliterate the country's power plants if it does not open the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours.

This ultimatum comes amid rising tensions following attacks by the Iranian regime on civilian infrastructure, which have been condemned in the strongest terms by G7 nations. The G7 statement emphasized the need for necessary measures to support global energy supply and condemned Iran's reckless actions that threaten regional and global security.

The Iranian regime's attacks have targeted various locations across the region, including U.S. embassy headquarters in Baghdad. The statement also called for an immediate and unconditional cessation of these attacks and reaffirmed the importance of safeguarding maritime routes, particularly the Strait of Hormuz, which is crucial for energy supply stability.

The International Energy Agency is prepared to release stockpiles if necessary.
