Trump Threatens to Target Iran’s Energy Infrastructure if Hormuz Remains Blocked
Published by WarSignal Editorial · Last updated
Former U.S. President Donald Trump warned that the United States would destroy Iran’s electric and oil infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz is not opened.
Trump made the remarks in a statement that cited the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping lane for global oil traffic. He said the U.S. would “obliterate” Iran’s energy facilities if the channel remained closed.
The comments come amid heightened tensions in the Persian Gulf, with the U.S. and Iran both accusing each other of escalating provocations.
