Tensions between the US and Iran have reached a boiling point as President Trump issued a stark ultimatum, warning that if Iran fails to immediately open the Strait of Hormuz by 8pm Tuesday, the US will take drastic action. In a move that has sent shockwaves through the international community, Trump threatened to destroy key Iranian infrastructure, including power plants and bridges, in a bid to force Tehran's hand. The Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway that connects the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman, has been a focal point of the escalating conflict between the US and Iran, with Tehran's Revolutionary Guard Corps seizing a British oil tanker in the area earlier this month. As the clock ticks down, the world holds its breath, waiting to see if Trump's ultimatum will be met with compliance or further escalation.
