In the Truth Social post, Trump 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! Praise be to Allah.”
The US president had earlier said that he would host a press briefing in the Oval Office on Monday, after the US military rescued two American pilots whose aircraft were downed in Iran.
The warning comes ahead of Trump’s self-imposed deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil and gas passage which is responsible for 20% of global oil passage, which has been effectively closed since war broke out between US-Israel and Iran on February 28.
