Trump Threatens To Hit Iran’s Power Plants, Bridges on Tuesday If Strait Remains Closed

U.S. President, Donald Trump has threatened to target ​Iran's power plants and bridges on ​Tuesday if the Strait of Hormuz ⁠is not reopened.

 

Trump in an expletive-laden social media post on Sunday wrote: "Tuesday will be Power ​Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped ​up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!

"Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living ​in Hell - ​JUST ⁠WATCH!," Trump said, ending his Easter morning post with: "Praise be to ​Allah."

The president separately said he ​would ⁠hold a news conference on Monday in the Oval Office, after the U.S. military ⁠rescued ​two U.S. pilots whose ​aircraft were downed in Iran.
