Envoy says Iran will take 'proportionate' action if Trump follows through on attack threats
Iran warned it will take immediate and proportionate action as Trump said his 8 p.m. deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz is final.
- An Iranian envoy says Tehran will take immediate and proportionate action if Trump follows through on threats to attack Iran's whole civilization.
- Trump has repeatedly imposed deadlines linked to threats against Iran, only to extend them, but insists this one is final without a diplomatic breakthrough.
- Hostilities began Feb. 28 after Israel and the U.S. attacked. Iran subsequently choked off shipping through the Strait, sending Brent crude prices above $108 per barrel, up around 50% since the war started.
- Trump told reporters he is "not at all" concerned about committing war crimes. The ultimatum leaves Iranians on edge as the evening deadline approaches, fearing destruction of their infrastructure.
