Trump threatens Iranian infrastructure over Strait of Hormuz | BBC News

US President Donald Trump has threatened to blow up electricity plants, oil wells and water desalination plants in Iran if the country does not meet his new Tuesday deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

A number of infrastructure and civilian targets have already been hit during the war; the US and Israel say some were related to military operations, while others were accidental.
