Trump Signals Possible Strike on Iran's Pickaxe Mountain Nuclear Facility

Trump said U.S. strikes will continue until Iran agrees to talks and warned Pickaxe Mountain could be hit soon, citing weak nuclear activity.

  • On Tuesday, the United Arab Emirates reported Iran struck two tankers in the Strait of Hormuz with missiles, killing one crew member and wounding eight others, as CENTCOM conducted a third consecutive night of strikes on Iranian military targets.
  • Hostilities resumed last week after the interim U.S.-Iran agreement collapsed, prompting President Donald Trump to reimpose a blockade on Iranian ports and threaten a 20% toll on cargo transiting the waterway.
  • Oil prices surged more than 9% as confirmed crossings through the strait declined by around 52%; CENTCOM successfully struck military targets including Bushehr and Bandar Abbas, while Iran retaliated against U.S. interests in Bahrain.
  • Despite escalating attacks, President Trump said on Monday a deal to end the war remains 'still possible,' though Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei stated the June memorandum of understanding is 'in crisis.'
  • The administration notified Congress that hostilities resumed on July 7, opening a 60-day window for military operations without congressional approval, while the UAE Defense Ministry stated it remains on 'highest level of readiness' against threats.
